1Looked after and previously looked after children — Looked after children or children who were looked after but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became the subject of a child arrangements order or special guardianship order.
2Children of staff — The children of staff at Lambs Lane where that member of staff is the legal parent and guardian of that child, has a permanent contract to work at the school and where that member of staff has been employed at the school for 2 or more years at the time of application for the place or the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post within a demonstrable skill shortage.
3Siblings — Children who have a sibling at the school at the time of application, who is expected to be attending the school when the child will enter the school. Priority is given to those whose permanent home address is closest to Lambs Lane.

Children with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP), or a statement of Special Educational Needs that names the school in the plan or the statement will be allocated a place above all other applicants. Where the application of oversubscription criteria would result in splitting children with either the same birth dates or children born in the same academic year from the same family, then places will be offered even if this will result in the school going above its admission number. Sibling definition includes brother or sister (same parents whether living at same address or not), half-brother or half-sister, step-brother or step-sister, or adopted or foster children living at the same address, and children for whom an offer has been accepted even if not yet attending.
