Notes

          a) Children in priorities 1 and 2 above may also be admitted above the Published admissions Number (PAN)

b) If we cannot agree to requests for admission in priorities 3 to 6 above without exceeding the PAN, we will give priority up to the PAN to children living                    nearest the school.  Distance is measured in a straight line.

c) ‘Live’ means the child’s permanent home at the date when the applications close or if a significant house move is involved, the latest reasonable date prior to the final allocation of places.

d) A priority Admission Area means geographical area determined by Kirklees in consultation with the governing body of the school.

 

NB There is no longer a guaranteed place for any child in any of the priorities at any key stage.
