When there are more applications than places for 2027-28 (Year 7), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.
If two applications tie: Preference to children in the second and third priority will be applied in the following order: (i) To children who are registered as in receipt of the Pupil Premium at the time of application, then (ii) To children who have a sibling at the School in September of the year of entry, then (iii) To children who live closest to the School. If two or more applicants fulfil the relevant criteria and live equidistant to the School but there are not enough spaces remaining to accommodate them all, the available place(s) will be allocated at random. The process will be conducted in the presence of a witness who is independent of the School and its admissions process.
