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.
If two applications tie: Priority will be given to children living closest to the school determined by the shortest distance. A straight line distance is measured from the address point of the home address to the address point 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.
Within each of the seven main categories, sub-priority is given first to (i) attendance of a brother or sister at the school at the time of enrolment (raises application to top of that category), then (ii) proximity to the school (distance calculated per Primary Education in Essex).
Published by the admission authority. Meeting a criterion never guarantees a place — it sets the order places are offered in. Full detail, other entry points and previous years are on the Admissions tab.
