Distance Higher priority will be accorded to applicants within each category living nearer to the School with the distance being measured by the Local Authority’s Geographical Information System (GIS) in use at the time of allocation (the system at the time of setting the policy takes the measurement between the address mapping points of the school and the address at which the child lives for most of the week.) If distances are equal, as calculated by the Authority's GIS system, for example a flat in a block of dwellings with the same front entrance, a random allocation system (supervised by an independent body) will be used to determine the allocation. The Governors have determined that the measuring point should be at the Southbourne site.
