Distance did not decide places here
Every applicant who applied on time was offered a place for 2026-27 (Reception), so there was no cut-off distance. This changes from year to year; check the current year's figures before relying on it.
When there are more applications than places for 2025-26 (Reception), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.
If two applications tie: Where children have identical ranking, priority within each category will then be determined by random allocation. Random Allocation is the drawing of lots, supervised by a person independent of the school.
Within each category, priority is given to children who will have a brother or sister at the school at the time of enrolment. The PAN of 50 is stated in reference to September 2024 in the document text, despite the policy being titled 2025-26. Catechumen criterion (rank 5) cannot apply to any child less than 7 years old.
Published by the admission authority. Meeting a criterion never guarantees a place — it sets the order places are offered in. Full detail, other entry points and previous years are on the Admissions tab.
