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.
How places were offered at Headlands Primary School, year by year →
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.
If two applications tie: If two or more applications cannot otherwise be separated and only one place is available, a computerised random allocation process will be used to determine who should be allocated the place. This process will be supervised by an independent person who is not affiliated with the school.
The school also has a 50-place Special Unit (Woodlands) for children with communication difficulties including autism; admission to the Special Unit is for children with an EHCP naming the unit and is handled separately from this policy. Staff children qualify if the staff member has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time of application and/or was recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.
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.
