Priority order when there are more applications than places, 2027-28 (Reception):
If two applications tie: Where any criterion above is oversubscribed, priority goes by distance, measured as above, closest first. If two or more children 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 will be supervised by someone independent from the school.
Local-authority coordinated default oversubscription criteria for Kent County Council's community and voluntary-controlled schools (the council is the admission authority). Some community/voluntary-controlled schools in this authority apply catchment-area, feeder-school or priority-area variants — check the individual school for its exact arrangements. The document explicitly states that Guston Church of England Primary School, St Peters CE Primary School Tunbridge Wells, Tunbury Primary School, and Whitfield Aspen Primary School have their own different oversubscription criteria (e.g., Service Pupil Premium, priority catchment/radius zones, no linked-school criterion), distinct from the default criteria listed above which applies to all other Community and Voluntary Controlled Infant, Junior and Primary schools.
Published by the admission authority. A criterion sets the order places are offered in and never guarantees a place.
