Reproduced by Bath & North East Somerset Council in its 2027-2028 secondary admissions booklet, which prints each school's own oversubscription criteria. This school is its own admission authority, so the full determined arrangements are published on the school's website and should be checked for definitions and evidence requirements. This school's criteria turn on an Area of Prime Responsibility (APR). B&NES describes its APRs in words in the booklet rather than publishing a boundary map or dataset, so no polygon is held — ask the council or the school whether a given address falls inside.

Published by the admission authority. Meeting a criterion never guarantees a place — it sets the order places are offered in. Full detail, other entry points and previous years are on the Admissions tab.
