A 'previously looked after child' is one who is no longer looked after, in England or Wales, because they were immediately adopted or subject to a special guardianship or child arrangements order in relation to whom the child lives.

Special social or medical reasons — We will only consider applications on social or medical grounds if they are supported by a professional recommendation from a doctor, social worker, or other appropriate professional. The supporting evidence should set out the particular social or medical reasons why the school in question is the only school and the difficulties that would be caused if the child had to attend another school; 3. Siblings — Children with siblings who already attend the school and will still be attending the school at the time of admission. The term 'sibling' refers to children who live with the same family at the same address. Children living with the same family e.g. foster children and stepsiblings. Cousins are not siblings, and 1 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If there are not enough places for all the children in one of these priority groups, priority will be given, in order, to those living nearest the school. All distance measurements are based on the straight-line route from the Ordnance Survey address point of a child's permanent home address to school's main entrance. If two, or more, applicants live an equal distance from the school, a random allocation will be used.
