Admissions policy 2023

Pupils permanently resident (the address at which the child is registered for child benefit), who expresses a preference for that school (proof of address may be required) within the admission zone who have returned a Common Application Form by the closing date (31 October for secondary applications and 15 January for primary applications).

When a school is oversubscribed with in-zone applications (there are more applications from children living in the admission zone of the school than there are places available) we will allocate places:

• firstly to children permanently living in the admission zone (Criterion 4) with exceptional social or medical reasons for attending the school (Criterion 5)
• then to children permanently living in the admission zone (Criterion 4) according to their distance from the school measured in a straight line "as the crow flies" (Criterion 6).
