When there are more applications than places for 2027-28 (Reception), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.

Distances will be calculated by straight line measurement from the address point location coordinate of the applicant's home address (as set by Ordnance Survey) to the centre point (centroid) of the school in question. In a very small number of cases where distance is equal, the Local Authority will select the child to be offered the final place by random allocation (lottery).
The school is part of the Our Lady of the Magnificat. Parish boundaries are as shown on the Archdiocese of Birmingham parish boundary map. A looked after child living with a family where at least one of the carers is Catholic will be considered as Catholic provided the carer forwards a copy of their Catholic Baptismal or Reception certificate to the school.
