Read 2026-09-12 from Primary Education in Mid-Essex Directory 2027/2028, page 89. Essex prints every school's admission policy, published admission number, applications received and the criterion under which the last child was admitted, two schools to a page. In 2026 the last child was admitted under criterion 4.
