How places are decided at Auckley Primary Academy

When there are more applications than places for 2026-27 (Reception), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.

1Looked After Children or Previously Looked After Children
2Catchment Area — Children who are ordinarily resident in the catchment area of the school. For applications for the year of entry received by the closing date, a catchment area school will be determined in relation to the address at which the pupil is ordinarily resident on that date.
3Siblings — Children who are living within the same family unit (e.g. stepchildren) who will be attending the requested school, (excluding nursery), at the point of admission. Where the requested school is an infant or junior school, attendance at a linked infant or junior school will be included. Where a place is only available for one child from a multiple birth i.e. twins, each child will be offered a place.
4Proximity — Children who live nearest to the requested school measured in a straight line from the centre point of the child's ordinary place of residence, to the entrance nearest to the reception point of the school. If two or more pupils live equidistant from the school, the distance each pupil lives by road from the preferred school will be measured and the place offered to the pupil who lives nearest by this means. In the event of this being equal (e.g. in the case of flats), places will then be decided by Random Allocation.

If two applications tie: Proximity is the final tie breaker (criterion d), with equidistant cases resolved by road distance and then Random Allocation.
