Admission to Primary School 2011-2012 Booklet - Wigan Council

Admissions to primary school in 2011 to 2012
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 we offer the last place available to one of twins (or triplets and so on)
we will offer the place that is available and you can decide which child
will take up the place.
c) Where admission is sought under special medical or social
circumstances criteria, professional supporting evidence, e.g. 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.
d) ‘Brother’ or ‘sister’ includes half-brothers & half-sisters, step brothers &
step sisters and foster brothers & foster sisters who live at the same
address as part of the same family.
