Distance did not decide places here
Every applicant who applied on time was offered a place for 2026-27 (Reception), so there was no cut-off distance. This changes from year to year; check the current year's figures before relying on it.
How places were offered at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School, year by year →
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.
If two applications tie: Priority will be given to children living closest to the school determined by the shortest distance. Distance will be measured by straight line distance from the child's permanent home address (including flats and apartments) to the school using the local authority's computerised measuring system with those living closest to the school being given preference in the event a school receives more applicants than it has places available in a particular year group. In the event of distances being the same for two or more children where this would determine the last place to be allocated, random allocation will be carried out and supervised by a person independent of the school.
Within each category, applications with exceptional social, medical or pastoral need (evidenced) are placed at top, followed by those with siblings attending at time of enrolment, before the standard ordering applies. Twins/siblings from multiple births admitted where one is last ranked within PAN.
Published by the admission authority. Meeting a criterion never guarantees a place — it sets the order places are offered in. Full detail, other entry points and previous years are on the Admissions tab.
