Guide to Admission Terms

This booklet gives information on our secondary schools in Norfolk. Schools are listed in alphabetical order. For each school you will find the address, contact details and the name of the headteacher.

Please refer to “Parent guide to admission to schools in Norfolk 2020 “booklet for full information about the admissions process. The booklet can be found on the Norfolk County Council website at www/norfolk.gov.uk/admissions.

Education Health and Care Plans (EHCP)/Statements of Special Educational Needs

Where a child's EHCP/Statement of Special Educational Needs names a specific school the school must admit the child regardless of whether the school has a place available. The over subscription rules for most schools include children with EHCPs/statements as the first priority to help parents understand that children with Plans have the highest priority legally. For these schools the remaining list of rules are used to prioritise applications if the school is over subscribed.

Children in Public Care and Looked After Children

In oversubscription rules "children in public care" and "looked after children" are defined as looked after children and previously looked after children. Previously looked after children are children who were looked after and ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a Residence Order or Special Guardianship Order. Some schools may give priority to children adopted from abroad but please check the individual rules for the school(s) you are applying for.

Distance

Distance will be measured on a straight line 'crow flies' basis using Ordnance Survey data. The measurement will be taken from the Post Office postcode address point on the child's home to the Post Office postcode address point on the school.

Siblings

In the oversubscription rules ‘brother’ or ‘sister’ means: brothers or sisters living at the same address including adopted children, step-brothers, step-sisters and children in foster care within a family unit. Some admission authority schools may have a different definition. See the individual school admission policy for details.

Only siblings attending school at the time of your child's proposed admission will be given a higher priority in the oversubscription rules.

Children of Staff at the School

Admission authorities may give priority in their oversubscription criteria to children of staff at the school in either or both of the following circumstances: a) where the member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made, and/or b) the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage

Feeder school

Feeder school priority will only apply in the first year of entry to the school and does not apply to in year admissions.

Random Allocation

Where random allocation is used to determine the allocation of school, applicants will have their names drawn by lots to see who should be offered the place(s). There will be an independent scrutiny of the random allocation process.

Children due to transfer

Pupils transfer to secondary education from primary schools or junior schools at 11+. Secondary schools are for 11 to 16 year olds or 11-18 year olds if the school has a .

Any parent seeking a place for their child out of their chronological age group will need to apply in writing to the Local Authority. The admission authority for the school must consider the circumstances of each case. Where the application is accepted the child will be considered alongside all other applicants. Where the application is refused the parent will be offered the right of appeal unless a place can be offered in another year group.

1. Looked after children, or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption order, residence, or special guardianship order. A looked after child is a child who is (a) in the care of a local authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions 2. A fair banding system will be adopted for the remaining places. Each applicant will be required to take an online non-verbal reasoning test which would place them in a rank order. The applicants will then be placed in one of 5 ability bands based on their performance in the test. As far as are possible, each band will contain the same number of applicants so that each represents 20% of the applicants. The remaining places will be allocated so that an equivalent number of applicants are admitted from each band. Applicants will then be admitted according to the criteria listed below. 3. Siblings of pupils in attendance at the Academy in Year 7 to Year 11. These include brothers and sisters, half brothers and sisters and step brothers and sisters who share the same home. These also include adopted and foster brothers and sisters who share the same home. 4. Children for whom Caister Academy is the only school that is appropriate for the child to attend because of the child’s medical needs, or because of a serious and ongoing medical condition of one or both of their parents which would prevent the parents being able to make arrangements to take their child to and from any other school, will be allocated places under this priority. Applications under this priority must be accompanied by a supplementary information form (i.e. Priority 2 Form), Part A of which must be completed by the parents before being provided to the child or parent’s G.P. or hospital consultant who must then complete Part B, sign, stamp and date the form. The GP or hospital consultant must expressly confirm not only the nature of the medical condition of the child or parent, but also the reason why it is appropriate for the child to attend the academy, why no other school is suitable, and the medical reasons why this is the case. The completed, signed and stamped Priority 2 Form must be provided with the common application form. An application under this priority will not be considered in cases where the completed, signed and stamped Priority 2 Form is received after the common application form has been submitted. A decision on whether to admit a child under this priority will be made by the Admissions Panel of Caister Academy, who will take care to apply a consistent approach to all such applications received. Where the application is successful under this priority, places under this priority will be allocated according to proximity of the child’s main home address to the academy, with those living closest to the academy receiving higher priority. Where an application is not successful under this priority, the application will be placed into the next highest priority into which it falls below and will be considered along with all of the other applications falling within that priority.

5. Pupils in the transfer age group at Caister Junior, North Denes, , Filby, Ormesby Junior, Hemsby, Winterton, St Nicholas Priory CE VA, St Georges, and Edward Worlledge Primary Schools. 6. Pupils living within the catchment area of Caister upon Sea, Filby, Ormesby, Winterton, Hembsy, Fleggburgh, Great Yarmouth and Southtown. 7. Pupils living outside of the catchment area.

If priorities have to be decided within any of these categories, children will be placed in order of priority using distance from their home to the main entrance of the academy as measured by straight line. Any reasons put forward by parents in support of their preference will also be considered. These reasons should be supported with evidence wherever possible. If the reasons concern the child’s health or social wellbeing, the evidence should be provided by a medical practitioner or other social care professional. If it is considered that the reasons are sufficiently strong, the child will be placed on the school list above those whose position is based upon the distance criterion.

After the admission of pupils with an education, health and care plan naming the school, if there are more applications for places than there are places available, we will give preference to children living nearest to the school, according to the following rules in this order of priority:

1. Children in the care of a Local Authority (looked after children) or previously looked after children 2. Children who have a sibling on roll at the academy at the time of the proposed admission 3. Children of staff working for the school 4. Children living nearest the academy, by straight line distance from the main entrance to the academy to the main entrance of the child’s home

Where the admission of children from multiple births would lead to exceeding the PAN, those siblings will be admitted over PAN as permitted by infant class size rules.

Where a child lives with parents with shared responsibility, each for part of a week, the address where the child lives is determined using a joint declaration from the parents stating the pattern of residence. If a child’s residence is split equally between both parents, then parents will be asked to determine which is the residential address for the purpose of admission to the academy. If the residence is not split equally between both parents then the address used will be the address where the child spends the majority of the academy week.

If the academy is unable to distinguish between applicants using the published criteria, places will be offered via a random draw which will be supervised by an individual who is independent of the academy.

The only exception to this rule will be where the school can demonstrate a recruitment issue for that post; 5. children who are due to transfer and live in the area served by the school; 6. children who are due to transfer who live outside the area served by the school and attend a feeder school (see below) at the opening date of the admission round; 7. children who are due to transfer and live outside the area served by the school.

If all children within any of the above rules cannot be offered a place, the highest priority will be given to children living nearest to the school within that rule. To determine who lives nearest, distance will be measured on a straight line 'crow fly' basis, using Ordnance Survey data. If, following the application of admission rules and distance, two applicants cannot be separated for a final place at a school the academy will use random allocation to determine the priority for the remaining place.

Children in the care of a Local Authority (looked after children) or previously looked after children 3. Children who have a sibling on roll at the college at the time of the proposed admission 4. Children of staff working for the school 5. Children living nearest the college, by straight line distance from the main entrance to the college to the main entrance of the child’s home

Where a child lives with parents with shared responsibility, each for part of a week, the address where the child lives is determined using a joint declaration from the parents stating the pattern of residence. If a child’s residence is split equally between both parents, then parents will be asked to determine which is the residential address for the purpose of admission to the college. If the residence is not split equally between both parents then the address used will be the address where the child spends the majority of the college week.

If the college is unable to distinguish between applicants using the published criteria, places will be offered via a random draw which will be supervised by an individual who is independent of the college.

1. Looked after children, or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption order, residence, or special guardianship order. A looked after child is a child who is (a) in the care of a Local Authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a Local Authority in the exercise of their social services functions. 2. Up to 10% of pupils on the basis of aptitude in design. Parents who wish to apply for their child to be considered for aptitude in design (up to 10% of intake) must complete a Supplementary Information Form available from the school’s website and from the school from 10th September of the year prior to transfer. (The school will set a test for these pupils and will make every reasonable effort to inform parents of the outcome before 31st October, prior to parents submission of the Common Application Form to the Local Authority). 3. Siblings of pupils in attendance at the Academy in Year 7 to Year 11. These include brothers and sisters, half brothers and sisters and step brothers and sisters who share the same home. These also include adopted and foster brothers and sisters who share the same home. 4. Children for whom Lynn Grove Academy is the only school that is appropriate for the child to attend because of the child’s medical needs, or because of a serious and ongoing medical condition of one or both of their parents which would prevent the parents being able to make arrangements to take their child to and from any other school, will be allocated places under this priority. Applications under this priority must be accompanied by a supplementary information form (i.e. Priority 2 Form), Part A of which must be completed by the parents before being provided to the child or parent’s GP or hospital consultant who must then complete Part B, sign, stamp and date the form. The GP or hospital consultant must expressly confirm not only the nature of the medical condition of the child or parent, but also the reason why it is appropriate for the child to attend the Academy, why no other school is suitable, and the medical reasons why this is the case.

The completed, signed and stamped Priority 2 Form must be provided with the Common Application Form. An application under this priority will not be considered in cases where the completed, signed and stamped Priority 2 Form is received after the Common Application Form has been submitted.

A decision on whether to admit a child under this priority will be made by the Admissions Panel of Lynn Grove Academy, who will take care to apply a consistent approach to all such applications received.

Where the application is successful under this priority, places under this priority will be allocated according to proximity of the child’s main home address to the academy, with those living closest to the academy receiving higher priority.

Where an application is not successful under this priority, the application will be placed into the next highest priority into which it falls below and will be considered along with all of the other applications falling within that priority.

5. Pupils in the transfer age group at Woodlands, Wroughton, Hillside, Moorlands and Homefield Primary schools. 6. Pupils living within the catchment area of Hopton, Browston, Belton, Fritton, Burgh Castle, Bradwell, Gorleston, St Olaves and Great Yarmouth. 7. Pupils living outside of the catchment area.

1. FIRST PRIORITY is given to candidates who are looked after by a Local Authority in England and Wales in accordance with section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989(b) at the time the application is made and those who were looked after but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a residence order or special guardianship order

2. SECOND PRIORITY is given to candidates who have a sibling who is on roll at the College or Prep School and who will still be a student at the College or Wymondham College Prep School at the time when the candidate, if successful, takes up his/her place. If the sibling is in Year 11 at the time of the candidate’s application and has been given a conditional offer of a place in the sixth form, this does not confer a sibling priority on the candidate as there is no guarantee that the sibling will meet the terms of their offer or take up their place at the College in Year 12. A sibling is defined as a brother or sister sharing at least one parent and who is normally resident at the same address. This includes adopted children and those living in the same home under a recognised fostering arrangement.

3. THIRD PRIORITY is given to students who are day students at Wymondham College Prep School.

4. FOURTH PRIORITY is given to candidates who demonstrate a particular aptitude in music as demonstrated in tests conducted by the College. There are up to eight places available for music.
