How are Reception places decided at South Milford Primary School?

When South Milford 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. 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. 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. A child is regarded as being in state care outside of England if they were accommodated by a public authority, a religious organisation or any another provider of care whose sole purpose is to benefit society; 2. Special social or medical reasons — Children the Trust considers have special social or medical reasons for admission. The Trust 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 which can meet the child's needs and the difficulties that would be caused if the child had to attend another school. Panels of professionally qualified people will be consulted in consideration of all applications made under priority group 2; 3. Children living within the normal area of the school — Children living within the normal area of a school. If a school is oversubscribed, priority will be given to a sibling at that school in the September of the younger sibling's entry, and then to those living nearest the school, and 2 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If there are not enough places for all the children in one of these priority groups, the Trust will give priority first to those with a sibling at the school in September 2027 and then to those living nearest the school. If within a priority group there are not enough places for all those with a sibling at the school in September 2027, the Trust will give priority to those children with a sibling living nearest the school. If the distance tie-break is not sufficient to distinguish between applicants in a particular priority group a random allocation will be used.
