was the furthest place offered on offer day for 2026-27 (Year 7). That is how far the last place reached in ONE year — not a boundary, and not a guarantee. It moves with the number of applicants, so treat it as a guide rather than a line on a map.

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: Distances are calculated using Hampshire County Councils geographical mapping system on the basis of a straight-line measurement between the ordnance survey point of the child's home address (including the community entrance to flats) and the ordnance survey point of the main entrance of the school. 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. All the names will be entered into a hat and the required number of names will be drawn out.
Within each oversubscription criterion, sub-categories are applied in order: (a) siblings, (b) children of staff employed by the Governing Body for at least two years prior to admission, then (c) distance. The governing body will, where logistically possible, admit twins and all siblings from multiple births where one of the children is the last child ranked within the PAN.
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.
Same phase, ranked by distance and how closely they match.
