How are Reception places decided at Vauxhall Primary School?

When Vauxhall Primary School has more applications than places for 2022-23, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked After Children or Previously Looked After Children — Priority will be given to a ‘looked after child’, a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangements, or special guardianship order 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, and previously looked after children; 2. Siblings — Children with a brother or sister who already attends the school, and who will not have left the school at the time of admission. A sibling is defined as a full/half/step brother or sister (who are living at the same address in all instances) or a child who is living as part of the family by reason of a court order, or a child who has been placed with foster carers at that address as a result of being looked after by the Local Authority; 3. Children with Exceptional Medical or Social Needs — Children with a professionally supported medical or social need, whose application identifies a particular school that is especially able to meet that need. This criterion will also take into account where a parent/carer has a physical, mental or social need that is significant and demonstrable for their child to attend a specific school. This does not include childcare arrangements. The decision to prioritise on these grounds will be determined via MEDSOC panel, and 2 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point. Tie-break: As a tiebreaker for all criteria, priority will be given to children living closest to the preferred school (measured by a straight-line) in accordance with the measuring information in criterion 5. However, in the case where children have exactly the same distance between their home and the school, the Governing Body will randomly allocate places as a tiebreaker.
