 Where qualifying applications for admission exceed the number of places available, places will be determined as follows:

  1. Looked after children and all previously looked after children who have achieved the minimum standardised qualifying score.

  2. Children who are eligible for the full Pupil Premium who achieve the qualifying score, by rank order of standardised score, but limited to, up to 20 places in this category. Children who are unsuccessful in this category may nevertheless achieve a place in the remaining category.

  3.  Any remaining places will then be awarded in rank standardised score order for those students who have qualified for entry, up to the total number of children intended to be admitted under the published admission number.

In the event of a tie, priority will be given to the child with the shortest distance from their home to the school.

Oversubscription policy —  Candidates will only be considered eligible for admission if they are deemed to be of selective ability as a result of the testing process, with a score of 220 or above. 

Before the application of oversubscription criteria, students with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) which names the school and who have passed the assessment will be admitted. As a result of this the published admissions number will be reduced accordingly.

  2. Siblings of pupils already attending the school at the time of admittance.

  3. Straight line distance as calculated electronically to three figures after the decimal point by Lincolnshire County Council school admissions team from the Post Office Address Point of the home to the Post Office Address Point of the school.
