How are Year 3 places decided at Pixmore Junior School?

When Pixmore Junior School has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Children looked after and previously looked after — Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, including those children who appear (to the admission authority) to have been in state care outside of England, and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted. Previously looked after children are those who were looked after but ceased to be so because of being adopted or became subject to a child arrangements order* or a special guardianship order*; 2. Medical or Social — Children for whom it can be demonstrated have a particular medical or social need to go to the school. A panel of officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child's needs; 3. Linked School — (This rule only applies to pupils who are currently on roll at an infant school which has a linked junior school.) In the case of junior schools, children who are on roll at the linked infant school at the time of application or have been allocated and accepted a place at the infant school, and 3 further criteria. The school offers 60 places at this entry point. Tie-break: When there is a need for a tie break where two different addresses are the same distance from a school, in the case of a block of flats for example, the lower door number will be deemed nearest as logically this will be on the ground floor and therefore closer. If there are two identical addresses of separate applicants, the tie break will be random. Every child entered onto the HCC admissions database has an individual random number assigned, between 1 and 1 million, against each preference school. When there is a need for a final tie-break the random number is used to allocate the place, with the lowest number given priority.

What is the largest ethnic background at Pixmore Junior School?

How places are decided at Pixmore Junior School

When there are more applications than places for 2027-28 (Year 3), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.

1Children looked after and previously looked after — Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, including those children who appear (to the admission authority) to have been in state care outside of England, and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted. Previously looked after children are those who were looked after but ceased to be so because of being adopted or became subject to a child arrangements order* or a special guardianship order*.
2Medical or Social — Children for whom it can be demonstrated have a particular medical or social need to go to the school. A panel of officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child's needs.
3Linked School — (This rule only applies to pupils who are currently on roll at an infant school which has a linked junior school.) In the case of junior schools, children who are on roll at the linked infant school at the time of application or have been allocated and accepted a place at the infant school.
4Sibling — Children who have a sibling on the roll of the school or linked school at the time of application*, or whose sibling has been offered and has accepted a place. This applies to reception through to Year 5 in infant, junior and primary schools; and from reception through to Year 3 in first schools; and from Year 5 to Year 7 in middle schools. Sibling connections in a school's final year group will also be recognised for In Year admissions.
5Nearest School — Children for whom it is their nearest school or academy. This includes all schools except those which allocate places on the basis of faith (membership or practice) before allocating on the basis of distance/location.
6Distance — Children who live nearest to the school. Children not considered under rule 5 will be considered under rule 6.

If two applications tie: When there is a need for a tie break where two different addresses are the same distance from a school, in the case of a block of flats for example, the lower door number will be deemed nearest as logically this will be on the ground floor and therefore closer. If there are two identical addresses of separate applicants, the tie break will be random.

When there is a need for a final tie-break the random number is used to allocate the place, with the lowest number given priority.

Local-authority coordinated default oversubscription criteria for Hertfordshire County Council's community and voluntary-controlled schools (the council is the admission authority). Document also covers first, infant, junior and middle schools (primary phase). Secondary-specific 'nearest school' definition is included but the main ordered criteria list applies generally across community/VC schools including secondary transfer per the document's linked appendices; phase set to 'primary' as the explicit criteria document title specifies first/infant/primary/junior/middle schools.

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.
