When Malton Primary Academy has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked after / previously looked after children — Children in public care at the time when preferences are expressed and who are still in public care at the time of their admission to school, and those who have been previously looked after (see note (i)); 2. Sibling in catchment — Having a brother or sister who will be attending the school at the expected time of admission and resident in the catchment area of the school. (see notes (ii) and (iii)); 3. Sibling not in catchment — Having a brother or sister who will be attending the school at the expected time of admission but not a resident in the catchment area of the school. (see note (ii)), and 4 further criteria. The school offers 42 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If we have more applications meeting one of these priorities than there are places available, we will offer places in order of distance from the school – so those living closer to the school would be offered a place before those living further away, when measured in a straight line. (see note iv). In the unlikely event there are insufficient places for two (or more) pupils living in the same building (e.g. flats) or otherwise equidistant from the school, then any final place will be allocated by the drawing of lots, witnessed by an independent person. The drawing of lots for random allocation will not be applied to siblings from the same family where they are tied for the final place. We will admit them all, exceeding the PAN for the school.
