<strong>Admission</strong>s <strong>to</strong> primary school in <strong>2011</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>2012</strong><br />

Tie breaker<br />

Where there are more children in one particular criterion than the number of<br />

places available, places will be allocated <strong>to</strong> the children who live nearest <strong>to</strong><br />

the school. The distance will be measured in a straight line from the child’s<br />

home address <strong>to</strong> the centre point of the school using the local authority<br />

Geographical Information System (GIS) which is based on ordnance survey.<br />

In cases where there are two or more children with the same distance<br />

measurement (for example if more than one child lives in a block of flats),<br />

where <strong>to</strong> admit another child would breach the infant class size regulations, a<br />

system will be used <strong>to</strong> randomly pick who will be offered a place. Please<br />

contact the school if you would like more information about this.<br />

If we offer the last place available <strong>to</strong> one of twins (or triplets and so on) we will<br />

offer the place that is available and you can decide which child will take up the<br />

place.<br />
