How are Reception places decided at Crowmoor Primary School?

When Crowmoor Primary School has more applications than places for 2026-27, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked after and previously looked after children — 'Looked after child' or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangements, or special guardianship order including those who appear to the school to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted. Very exceptionally, priority may be given to a child who has a particular health reason requiring them to attend a specific school. This will only be allowed if parents/carers provide written evidence from a medical professional that in the view of the authority confirms that attending that particular school (and no other) is essential to the medical well-being of the child. The authority reserves the right to contact medical professionals to ascertain the relevance of the medical condition; 2. Catchment area children — Children living inside the designated catchment area will have priority of admission. If there are not enough places for all the children in the catchment area then the following criteria for admission will apply in order:; 3. Catchment area children with sibling — Priority will be given to children living within the catchment area who will have an older sibling at the school on the day they are due to start school, and 3 further criteria. 26 places were offered at this entry point for 2026-27. Tie-break: In the event that two applications are exactly the same after all other criteria have been taken into account a tie breaker will be used. This will be by random allocation and overseen by an independent party not connected with the admissions process.
