How are Reception places decided at Threshfield Primary School?

When Threshfield 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 — 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. 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. 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 reason(s) 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. Catchment area (sibling then distance) — Children living within the catchment area of the preferred 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 school at the time of admission and then to children living nearest the school, and 2 further criteria. The school offers 15 places at this entry point. Tie-break: If there are not enough places for all the children in one of these priority groups, we will give priority first to those with a sibling at the school in September 2027. If within a priority group there are not enough places for all those with a sibling at the school in September 2027, 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 the Council’s electronic mapping system from a child’s home address to school, measured from a fixed point within the dwelling 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.
