Last distance offered at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Junior School, year by year →
When there are more applications than places for 2026-27 (Year 3), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.
If two applications tie: Priority will be given to children living closest to the school determined by the shortest distance. Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between the front door of the child’s home address (including the community entrance to flats) and the main entrance of the school (using the local authority’s computerised measuring system). In the event of distances being the same for two or more children where this would determine the last place to be allocated, random allocation will be carried out and supervised by a person independent of the school.
The document states the admission number of 60 is 'to be admitted to Year 3 in the school year which begins in September, 2025', which appears to be a carried-over/inconsistent date within a policy otherwise headed for the 2026/2027 academic year. Within each numbered category, sub-priorities apply in order: (i) exceptional social/medical/pastoral need, (ii) sibling attending the Junior School, (iii) sibling attending the Infant School. Certificate of Catholic Practice required for criteria 3, 4 and 5.
