When St Crispin's School has more applications than places for 2027-28, they are offered in a published order of priority: 1. Looked After Children and previously looked after children — Looked After Children and all previously looked after children. Previously looked after children are children who were looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child arrangements order or special guardianship order) immediately following having been looked after. This also includes children who appear to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted; 2. Medical or social need — Children who have a medical or social need as the grounds for their admission to St Crispin's School (see notes). An additional form will need to be completed; 3. Children of staff — The children of staff at St Crispin's School, where that member of staff is the legal parent and guardian of that child, has a permanent contract to work at a school within St Crispin's 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 St Crispin's School where there is a demonstrable skill shortage. This criterion applies to both teaching and non-teaching groups of staff that meet one or both of the above definitions, and 3 further criteria. Tie-break: Priority will be given within any of the above oversubscription criteria to the applicant whose permanent home address is nearest to St Crispin's School in terms of radial (straight line) distance. In the unlikely event that two or more children live at the same distance or additional distance from school (including, for example, flats within the same building), and there are fewer places available, random allocation will be used to decide which child will be allocated the remaining place(s). This will be by supervised drawing of lots, carried out by someone independent of the school.
