Admissions Policy

We follow the Derbyshire Admissions Policy.  For all community and controlled schools individual pupils who have a Special Educational Need or Disability, or an Education Health Care plan, which names the school, will be admitted.

In deciding on admissions to all community and voluntary controlled schools in Derbyshire, the following order of priority will be adopted.

Looked after children and children who were looked after but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child arrangements order or special guardianship order).

  • Children living in the normal area served by the school at the time of application and admission who have brothers or sisters attending the school at the time of application and admission
  • Children living in the normal area served by the school at the time of application and admission
  • Children not living in the normal area served by the school but who have brothers or sisters attending the school at the time of application and admission
  • In the case of voluntary controlled church schools, children whose parents request a place on religious grounds
  • Other children whose parents have requested a place 

When in the case of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 above, choices have to be made between children satisfying the same criteria, those children living nearest to the school (measured by straight line distance) will be given preference.
