Summary of policy

This is a voluntary aided school – please contact the school for full admission details. To apply for a place at this school, please apply online and use the supplementary information form available from the school.

  1. (a) Children in Public Care and previously looked after children This includes children who appear to have been in state care outside of England and have ceased to be in state care due to be adopted.
    (b) Children with special medical or social circumstances affecting the child where these needs can only be   met at this school.
  2. Children with a parent/guardian worshipping in a church in membership of Churches Together in England and Evangelical Alliance.

Where there are more applicants for the available places within a category, then the distance between the Ordnance Survey address points for the school and the home measured in a straight line will be used as the final determining factor, nearer addresses having priority over more distant ones.  This address point is within the body of the property and usually located at its centre. Where two addresses have the same distance, or  the cut-off point is for addresses within the same building, then the Local Authority's system of a random draw will determine which address(es) receive the offer(s).
