How are Reception places decided at Burton Salmon Community Primary School?

When Burton Salmon Community 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 — Looked after children and all previously looked after children for whom the school has been expressed as a preference. Children who appear to the admissions authority to have been in state care outside of England and cease to be in state care as a result of being adopted. This applies to all looked-after children, including those who are in the care of another local authority or being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services function at the time of making an application. Previously looked after children are children who were looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a child arrangement order or special guardianship order; 2. Special social or medical reasons — Children the authority considers have 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. The supporting evidence should set out the particular social or medical reasons why the school in question is the only school and the difficulties that would be caused if the child had to attend another school. Panels of professionally qualified people will consider all applications made under priority group 2; 3. Children living within the catchment area of the school — Children living within the catchment area of the school. If there are not enough places for all the children in this priority group, we will give first priority to children with a sibling at the preferred school at the time of admission and then to children living nearest the school, and 2 further criteria. Tie-break: If within a priority group there are not enough places for all those with a sibling at the school at the time of admission, we will give priority to those children with a sibling living nearest the school. All distance measurements are based on the nearest route recognised by our electronic mapping system from a child's home address to school. The measurement is made from a fixed point within the dwelling, as identified by Ordnance Survey, to the nearest school entrance using footpaths and roads. If the distance tie-break is not sufficient to distinguish between applicants in a particular priority group, a random allocation will be used.
