regular attendance at a church within the parish which is a member of<br />

Churches Together in Britain and Ireland, or a local Churches Together<br />

Notes:<br />

a) Regular attendance is normally taken <strong>to</strong> mean a minimum of fortnightly<br />

attendance at church at public worship for at least the year prior <strong>to</strong> 1 st<br />

September in the year before admission <strong>to</strong> the school. Evidence of<br />

infant baptism or dedication of the child and of regular attendance of<br />

parent(s)/guardian(s) must be provided by a member of the clergy or<br />

other designated church officer on the form provided.<br />

b) Tie-breaker:<br />

If more children fall in<strong>to</strong> any one category than the number of places<br />

left, the Governors will offer places <strong>to</strong> the children who live nearest <strong>to</strong><br />

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

home address <strong>to</strong> the front gate at the infant site, using <strong>Wigan</strong> <strong>Council</strong>’s<br />

measuring system.
