When there are more applications than places for 2025-26 (Year 7), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.

The policy does not explicitly mention EHCPs/SEN statements being admitted first, though this is a statutory requirement. The policy is stated as being subject to approval by the Regional Schools Commissioner (RSC). The same oversubscription criteria apply to Year 12 admissions. In-year admissions are also selective, requiring evidence of passing the Medway Test or sitting an age-appropriate standardised test.
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.
