Looked after children and previously looked after children — 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 its social services function at the time of making an application. Also includes children who appear to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted, or previously looked after children who ceased to be looked after because they were adopted or became subject to a child-arrangement order or special guardianship order; 2. 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, setting out 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 this priority group; 3. Children living within the catchment area of the preferred school — If there are not enough places for all children in this priority group, first priority will be given to children with a sibling at the school at the time of admission and then to children living nearest the school, and 2 further criteria.

Tie-break: If there are not enough places for all the children in one of these priority groups, we will give priority first those with a sibling at the school in September 2027, then to those children with a sibling living nearest the school. Distance is measured by the nearest route recognised by the Council's electronic mapping system from a child's home address to school entrance. If the distance tie-break is not sufficient to distinguish between applicants, a random allocation will be used.
