How places are decided at St John the Baptist Voluntary Aided Church of England Primary School

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

1Looked after and previously looked after children — Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, including those 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 or became subject to a child arrangements order or a special guardianship order.
2Exceptional social or medical grounds — Children who have exceptional social or medical grounds for attending the school.
3Siblings — Children who have a sibling who will be attending the school at the time of entry.
4Parish churchgoers — Children who at the time of application have their home address within the Ecclesiastical Parish of Great Amwell with St. Margaret's, one or more of whose parents have attended public worship at a Church of England Church or another Christian Church, at least once in each calendar month at the time of application, and for a period of one year previously. Applicants in this category will be required to provide evidence of attendance (signature of Vicar) at the time of application.
5Churchgoers outside the parish — Children whose home address is outside the area as defined in Category 4 above, one or more of whose parents/guardians have, at the time of application shown commitment to the Church of England or another Christian Church by attending a service at least once a month for the year prior to an application being made. Applicants in this category will need to ask their priest or minister to complete the relevant section of SIF.
6Any other children — Any other children.

If two applications tie: the tie-break will be distance from the school, measured using the computerised, 'straight line', mapping system operated by the L.A. where distances are measured to two decimal places... Where this distance measurement results in more than one child having an identical claim to the last available place as a result of living in flats, priority will be given to the lowest house number.

Children with an EHC Plan naming the school are admitted first (not a numbered criterion). Fair Access Protocol places are admitted above PAN and before Continuing Interest list if necessary.

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.
