All Saints CEVA Primary School and Nursery

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.

1. 1Looked after children and all previously looked after children
2. 2Children who worship at All Saints Church or All Hallows Church Wellingborough. These applications must be accompanied by form SIF/A which is available from the school. The completed SIF/A will then be sent to the minister with the form SIF/B to verify church allegiance.
3. 3Children who have a sibling continuing attendance at the school at the time of admission of the applicant.
4. 4Other children for whom All Saints is the nearest school
5. 5Other children.

If two applications tie: If the admission number is exceeded within any criterion, priority will be given to those who live

You must complete a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) if you would like your child to be considered under the Faith criterion. The SIF is available from the school and must be returned to the school by 5pm on 15 January 2027. The Governors will admit children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHC Plan) which names the School. Definition of child’s home address/residence The child’s home address means the permanent residence of the child at the time of application. The address must be the child’s only or main residence that is either: • Owned by the child’s parent(s) or carer(s) or • Leased to or rented by the child’s parent(s) or carer(s) under a lease or written rental agreement of not less than 6 months’ duration. The property leased must be where the family lives. Separated parents If a child lives with separated parents, the home address will be treated as the place where the child sleeps for most of the school week (i.e., Sunday night – Thursday night inclusive). If the child spends an equal amount of time at 2 addresses, the parents must decide which address they wish to use as the child’s main address for the application. Definition of Sibling A brother or sister living at the same address as the applicant (i.e., within a family unit) including: • a brother or sister sharing the same parents. • a half-brother or half-sister where two children share one common parent. • a step brother or step sister, where two children are related by a parents’ marriage/civil partnership. • A child who has been adopted or is fostered by parents/carers who have other children. Children of “worshipping members” For parents/carers to be worshipping members, at least one of the parents/carers of the child needs to be regarded by the priest/minister/worship leader as being part of the worshipping community at the church/worship centre. This would not necessarily mean that the parent/carer is a “Member” in the technical sense (e.g., through baptism, confirmation or electoral roll) but would imply a pattern of attendance at worship (on Sunday or at other times) that is more than “occasional” and has been sustained for more than a short, very recent, period of time. The Governing Board of All Saints CEVA Primary School defines this as 50% attendance over a 12- month period prior to submitting the SIF paperwork. In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the church has been closed for public worship and has not provided alternative premises for that worship, the requirements of these admissions arrangements in relation to attendance will only apply to the period when the church or alternative premises have been available for public worship. SIF A/B If parents/carers wish their application to be considered in criterion 2, they must complete form SIF/A which is available from the school and return it to the school (not the local authority). This must be done by the deadline of 5pm on 15th January 2027. The school will submit the completed form SIF/A to the relevant minister with form SIF/B to verify the information. As SIF/B needs to be returned to the school in time for the school to rank admissions, it is very important to submit form SIF/A to the School as soon as possible.
