When Crossley Street Primary School has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked after and previously looked after children — A looked after child is defined as a child who is (one of the following): in the care of a local authority; being provided with accommodation by a local authority's social services (see the definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989). A previously looked after child is any child who was previously looked after but stopped being so because they were (one of the following): adopted; became subject to a Special Guardianship order; became subject to a Child Arrangements Order; were in state care outside of England and were then adopted. You must submit evidence of your child's previously looked after status (a copy of the court order and evidence of being in local authority or state care outside England) with your application; 2. Children who have a brother or sister attending our school — To get this priority, the sibling must: live at the same address as the child applying; be attending the school and still be expected to attend the school when the child starts; be a full, half, step or foster sibling (this priority does not include cousins or other family members sharing a house); 3. Children who live in the catchment priority area for our school — Our school has a defined catchment priority area. You can see the catchment areas on a map at appendix 1 below. If you live in our catchment area your application will receive a higher priority at our school than applicants who live outside the catchment area. Living in the catchment area does not guarantee a place at our school, and 1 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point. Tie-break: In any priority, if children meet the same priority but there are not enough places left for all of them, the places will be allocated based on distance from our school. If two or more children live exactly the same distance from our school (i.e. in a block of flats) and there are not enough places for both, we will draw lots. This will be witnessed by a person independent of the school. We will not draw lots for twins or other multiple birth siblings from the same family. Where they are tied for the final place we will admit them all, exceeding the Published Admissions Number for our school.
