Read 2026-09-12 from Northumberland County Council's agreed admission arrangements for 2027/28. Northumberland runs a three-tier system in much of the county, so the council publishes one policy for first and primary schools (Reception) and a second covering middle, high and secondary schools at years 5, 7 and 9; the entry point here is taken from the school's own age range. The council's website rejects automated clients at its firewall although its robots.txt permits crawling, so the documents were retrieved through the operator browser. The primary file is still named "Consulted" but the council's own index lists it under "2027/2028 (Agreed Admission Arrangements)".
Published by the admission authority. A criterion sets the order places are offered in and never guarantees a place.

When Glendale Primary School (Prev. Wooler First 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 (as defined by Section 22 of the Children Act 1989) including a child who was previously “looked after” but immediately after being “looked after” became subject to an adoption, residence, or special guardianship order. 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; 2. Residence in the school's catchment area — Children living within the catchment area of the school and those on whose behalf firm evidence is presented that they will be living in the catchment area by the appropriate admission date. The following link provides information re: catchments relevant to the 2027/28 academic year: School catchment and transport eligibility maps | Northumberland County Council; 3. Exceptional medical or psychological grounds — Children with an exceptional social or medical reason that means that they can only attend that specific school (for example, where the child or one or both parents has a disability that means that the child can only go to one school). Strong supporting evidence must be provided from a professional body involved with the family or the child. The professional must be independent of both the family and the school. The evidence must relate specifically to the school for which the application is being made and must demonstrate clearly why it is the only school that can meet the child’s needs. No assumptions should be made that the submission of the relevant evidence will, in itself be sufficient to allocate a place. NOTE: You will not be allocated a place under this criterion if you omit to send to School Admissions Team a written statement from a professional third party by 15 January 2027, and 2 further criteria. The school offers 30 places at this entry point.
