When the Academy is over-subscribed, places will be allocated according to the following criteria:
- The child is in the care of the local authority (LAC) or has previously been in care (PLAC)
- There is a sibling on roll at the academy at the time of application
- A child whose parent is a member of staff and has been employed at the Academy for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the Academy is made
- Access to the school. The following will be taken into consideration in the order below:
- Whether this is the school closest to the home address
- The distance from home to school in a straight line. The distance is measured electronically by the LA from the Post Office address point of the home to the post office address point of the Academy.
