When Rosherville Church of England Academy has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Children in Local Authority Care, Previously in Local Authority Care or internationally adopted previously looked after children (IAPLAC) — A looked after child, or a child who was looked after and then, straight after, came under an adoption, child arrangements or special guardianship order. A looked after child is a child who is (a) in the care of a local authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (see the definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989), or (c) to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted; 2. Current family association — A brother or sister in the same school at the time of entry and the family continues to live at the same address as when the sibling was admitted or has moved to a new property nearer to the school as defined by the "Nearness Criterion" (below). In this context brother or sister means children who live as brother and sister in the same house, including natural brothers or sisters, adopted siblings, step brothers or sisters, foster brothers or sisters; 3. Health and Special Access Reasons — The school weighs medical, health, social and special access reasons in line with its legal duties, notably under the Equality Act 2010. Priority goes to children with a mental or physical impairment that gives them a demonstrable and significant need to attend a particular school. Equally this priority will apply to children whose parents/guardians physical or mental health or social needs mean that they have a demonstrable and significant need to attend a particular school. Each claim needs written evidence from a suitably qualified medical or other professional showing a special link between the need and that school, and 2 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If any category is oversubscribed, applicants will be ranked according to nearness of their home to the school. If, in the event that more than one applicant has the same distance from home to school (as measured by the Local Authority), then a random selection will be applied. Since a block of flats has a single address point of reference, applicants living in the same block will be regarded as living the same distance away from the school. If two or more children in the same block are equal in all other ways for the last place, each name gets a number and is drawn randomly to decide who gets it. This process will be independently supervised.
