When there are more applications than places for 2027-28 (Year 7), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.
If two applications tie: If a tie-break is necessary to determine which child is admitted, the child living closest to the school measured in a straight line will be given priority for admission. If there are two or more children with exactly the same circumstances, (e.g., the same distance measurement), then Random Allocation, undertaken by a person unconnected with the school or the Trust, will be used as a tie-break to decide who has highest priority for admission.
Staff criterion (rank 6) applies to staff employed by the Trust at Bassingbourn Village College for at least 2 years at time of application, or recruited to a hard-to-fill post with demonstrable skill shortage, whether full or part time but not temporary contractual staff.
