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.

1Children looked after and previously looked after — Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child arrangements order or a special guardianship order) including those children who appear to the governors to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted.
2Medical or social need — Children for whom it can be demonstrated that they have a particular medical or social need to go to the school.
3In parish with sibling — Children who live within the Ecclesiastical Parish of Chipperfield, with a sibling at the school at the time of the admission.

If two applications tie: If a further tie-break is needed to separate applications falling within a), b) or c) above, then highest priority within each of a), b) or c) (as the case may be) will be given to those children whose home address is nearest to the school. Distances are measured using Hertfordshire County Council's straight line distance measurement system; if applications cannot be separated by distance, the lower door number will be deemed nearest, and if addresses are identical, the tie break will be random using an individual random number assigned by HCC, with the lowest number given priority.

Within Rule 1 or Rule 2, if oversubscribed, priority given to those whose home address is nearest to the school. A SIF and Church Attendance Form must be completed for higher priority under Rules 3-6 on church attendance grounds.
