School admission policy : 2026/27 (Agreed)
If there are more applications for places than
there are places available, we will give preference to children living nearest
to the school, according to the following rules in this order of priority:
1. Children with a statement of special educational needs naming that school.
2. Children in public care who are due to start school or to transfer to the
appropriate age group.
3. Children who are due to transfer, living in the area served by the school
who have a brother or sister attending the school at the time of their
admission.
4. Children who are due to transfer, living in the area served by the school
who have no brother or sister connection to the school.
5. Children who are due to transfer, living outside the area served by the
school who have a brother or sister attending the school at the time of their
admission.
6. Children who are due to transfer, living outside the area served by the
school and attend a feeder school at the opening date of the admission round.
7. Children who are due to transfer, living outside the area served by the
school who have no brother or sister or feeder school connection with the
school.
If all children within any of the above rules cannot be offered a place, the
highest priority will be given to children living nearest to the school within
that rule. To determine who lives nearest, distance will be measured on a
straight line as the crow flies basis using Ordnance Survey data. The address
will be measured from the post office address point on the property.
