Siblings — Priority will next be given to children who will have siblings on the roll of the school at the point of the new pupil joining the school; 3. Children of E-ACT staff — Priority will next be given to children whose parent/carer is employed by E-ACT (teaching and non-teaching) and whose place of employment, as set out in their contract of employment, is the Academy, and who has either: a) been employed at the school for 2 or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made. b) been recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage. Applications under this criterion must be supported by the completion and submission of a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) by the published deadline, and 1 further criteria. Tie-break: Where two or more applications cannot be separated by the oversubscription criteria outlined above, priority will be given to the child living nearest to the school, measured in accordance with the distance methodology used by the relevant Local Authority. Where two or more applicants live at the same distance from the school and it is therefore not possible to determine priority, random allocation will be used to decide between them. This process will be independently supervised and carried out in accordance with the procedures of the relevant Local Authority.
