Special social or medical reasons — Priority Group 2: Children the Admissions Authority considers have had special social or medical reasons for admission. We will only consider applications on social or medical grounds if they are supported by a professional recommendation from a doctor, social worker, or other appropriate professional setting out the particular social or medical reason(s) why the school in question is the only school which can meet the child's needs; 3. Catchment area — Priority Group 3: Children living within the normal catchment area of the school. Refer to tie break, and 1 further criteria. The school offers 60 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If there are not enough places for all the children in one of these priority groups, we will give priority first to those with a sibling at the school in September 2027, who live the nearest to the school, and then to those living nearest the school, based on the nearest route recognised by the County Council's electronic mapping system.
