How places are decided at Ashby Fields Primary School

When there are more applications than places for 2026-27 (Reception), places are offered in this order of priority. Meeting a higher criterion beats meeting a lower one.

1Looked after children and all previously looked after children
2Children of staff at the school, in either or both of the following circumstances: a) Where the member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time which the application for admission to the school is made, and/or b) The member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skills shortage.
3Children with a brother or sister continuing at the school at the time of admission of the child.
4Children who live closer to the preferred school than any other primary school
5Other children. If the admission number is exceeded within any criterion, priority will be given to those who live closest to the school. Distances are measured on a straight-line basis from the address point of the child’s home address to the address point of the school using a Geographical Information System. If two or more applications cannot otherwise be separated and there is only one place available, a random allocation process will be used to determine who should be allocated the place.

Places will first be allocated to children who have an Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan that names the school as appropriate provision.
