Admissions

The school has a standard number of 30 children in each class, which cannot be exceeded, without referral to the governing body. Although the Published Admissions Number (PAN) is 206 based upon the size of the school buildings, the school is committed to accepting 210 onto the school roll.

We use the distance between the child’s permanent home address and the school, measured in a straight line using the National Land and Property Gazetteer (NLPG) address point data. Distances are measured from a point defined as within the child’s home to a point defined as within the school as specified by NLPG. The same address point on the school site is used for everybody.

“In year” admissions are managed by the school. Where classes are already full, pupils will be placed on a waiting list, in the order as detailed in the admissions criteria (see attached Admissions Policy).
