How are Reception places decided at Headley Park Primary School?

When Headley Park Primary School has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked after and previously looked after children — Highest priority will be given to looked after children (children in care) or children who were previously looked after (previously in care) at the time the application is submitted and will be allocated places in this category. A 'looked after child' is one who is (a) in the care of a Local Authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a Local Authority in the exercise of their social services functions, in England. A 'previously looked after child' is one who was looked after in England, but ceased to be so because they were adopted, or became subject to a child arrangements or special guardianship order, as well as a child who appears to the Admission Committee to have been in state care outside of England (i.e. in the care of or accommodated by a public authority, religious organisation or any other provider whose sole/main purpose is to benefit society), but ceased to be so as a result of being adopted; 2. Siblings — Next, pupils who, on the date of entry, will have a sibling on roll at Headley Park Primary School. The term "sibling" means a full, half, adopted, stepbrother or sister, but not cousins or other family members. Stepbrothers/sisters are defined as children who are not necessarily related biologically (including foster children) but are living in the same household for the majority of the time at the address the admission authority considers to be the address of the child for whom the application is made. A sibling must be living permanently with the applicant at the same address at the date of their admission to Headley Park Primary School; 3. Children of Staff — Next, priority will be given to children of staff who are employed by Amplify Education (formerly Cathedral Schools Trust) where their main place of work is Headley Park Primary School. This will include all teaching and non-teaching staff who; a. have been employed at the school for at least two consecutive years at the time at which the application for admission is made; or b. were recruited to fill a vacant post at the school for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage, and 1 further criteria. The school offers 60 places at this entry point. Tie-break: Where there are more applications than there are places remaining within a particular category, direct line distance from home to school will be used as a tie-break. Where two or more children live in a flat or other multi-home dwelling and it is not possible to determine which applicant lives closest to the preferred school as measured in a direct line from building to school, the place will be determined by random allocation. This process will be independently verified.
