Admissions to primary school in 2011 to 2012 Tie breaker When we use the admission criteria, more children might fall into a particular category than the number of places left. If this happens we use the tie breaker to decide who is given a place. Places will be given to the children who live nearest to the school. We measure this distance: From the child’s home address in a straight line to the centre point of the school site as determined by the Local Authority Using the GIS system which is based on Ordnance Survey maps In cases where there are two or more children with the same distance measurement (for example if more than one child lives in a block of flats), where to admit another child would breach the infant class size regulations, a system will be used to randomly pick who will be offered a place. Please contact the school if you would like more information about this. If the last place at the school is for one of twins (or triplets, and so on), other twin or triplet will be offered a place too. But it is not possible to do this if it would mean infant class sizes go over the legal limit. In this situation, we will offer the place that is available and you can decide which child will take up the place. At the same time your home local authority will tell you which other school could take all the children.

Baptised or dedicated children whose parent(s)/guardian(s) are in regular attendance at a church which is a member of Churches Together in Britain and Ireland, or a local Churches Together organisation. 5. Children with proven special educational, medical or social needs, whom the Governors believe would benefit from a place into this, their nearest school. 6. Children resident in the conventional district of St. George’s within the parish of Atherton. In the event of a split decision, distance taken from home to school main entrance, measured in a straight line as determined by LA. 7. All other children Notes: a) Regular attendance will be taken to mean a minimum of monthly attendance at church, at public worship, for at least the year prior to 1st September in the year before admission to the school. Evidence of infant baptism or dedication of the child and of regular attendance of parent(s)/guardian(s) must be provided by a member of the clergy or other designated church officer on the form provided. b) Where admission is sought under special educational, medical or social circumstances criteria, professional supporting evidence, eg. from a doctor, psychologist or social worker, is essential. Such evidence must set out the particular reasons why the school is the most suitable for the child and the difficulties that would be caused if the child had to attend another school. c) ‘Brother’ or ‘sister’ includes half, foster and adopted brothers or sisters living at the same address and full brother or sister living apart. d) Parents can request that the date their child is admitted to the school is deferred until later in the school year or until the child reaches compulsory school age in that school year. Where entry is deferred, the place will be held open and not offered to another child. Parents cannot defer entry beyond the beginning of the term after the child’s fifth birthday, nor beyond the academic year for which the original application was accepted. e) Parents can request that their child attends part-time until the child reaches compulsory school age.
