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. Looked after children or a child who was previously looked after, but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangement order, or special guardianship order or those children who appear to the school to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted.
  2. Children in special circumstances where their needs can only be met at this school will be given priority and will be admitted before considering other children falling into the following categories which are listed in priority order.
  3. Children who have a sibling attending the school at the time of application is made and who will still be in school at the expected time of entry.
  4. Children whose parents preferably have monthly worship at St. Andrew’s Church, Slaidburn and St. Bartholomew’s, Tosside.
  5. Children whose parents preferably have monthly worship of another church in membership of Churches Together in England.
  6. Distance from home to school.

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).
