1.2 Please note that the above table only deals with the Lambeth residents that have currently applied through the Lambeth secondary transfer schema. There are additional applications that will be received for all our schools (highlighted in bold) when we complete the Pan-London exchange, and upload the out of borough preferences. This will certainly see some significant increases in preference applications for some of our schools. This exchange will take place on the 14 th November 2012

1.3 There are also a small number of forms that the LA (and other LAs) are considering to process as on-time lates. This will cause a further change to the above numbers but not by much.

1.4 All LAs are also going through a double-checking procedure to eradicate duplicates (for example). This may also cause some change to the above numbers as well.

1.5 The final ‘steady state’ of numbers will be realised by the mid/December 2012 period.

1.6 The above data does show that, currently, the new E-ACT Academy is over subscribed. True oversubscription is realised after the iterative procedure where single offers are made. It could be that a school is oversubscribed at this stage but after iteration they become undersubscribed.

1.7 Though Archbishop Tenison’s has the lowest preference application total, being a school bordering another LA, they will receive a higher number of put-borough applications by the 14 th November exchange deadline.

2. Further statistical information.

2.1 74 families are claiming that they have a looked after child/formerly looked after child and are seeking CLA priority

2.2 The following table identifies the types of applications received in accordance with popular criteria:

Grand Pref. Estab. DIST LAC MEDSOC SIBL Total Archbishop Tenison's School 139 2 6 147 Bishop Thomas Grant Catholic Secondary School 462 2 8 25 497 City Heights E-ACT Academy 215 11 226 Dunraven School 1059 5 34 75 1173 Durand Academy 211 10 13 234 Evelyn Grace Academy 353 10 46 409 La Retraite Roman Catholic Girls' School 283 2 6 11 302 Lambeth Academy 437 2 16 60 515 Lilian Baylis Technology School 338 9 24 371 Platanos College (formally Stockwell Park High School) 334 1 14 48 397 Saint Gabriel's College 161 1 4 11 177 St Martin-in-the-Fields High School for Girls 222 1 9 16 248 The Elmgreen School 495 3 23 62 583 The London Nautical School 176 5 7 188 The Norwood School 352 3 8 22 385 Grand Total 5237 20 169 426 5852

2.3 Though the distance based applications are somewhat irrelevant for VA schools due to the worship criteria taking precedence over the distance ones, the above gives some idea as to how Lambeth parents are seeking priority at their preferred Lambeth school.

2.4 Medsoc applications will be determined by Lambeth’s MEDSOC Panel for The Norwood and Lilian Baylis and The Elmgreen schools only and the above numbers will decrease. A determined view will be delivered by the ending of January 2013.

2.5 There is also a sibling check procedure to ensure that all siblings meet school’s admissions criteria.

3. Oasis Academy

3.1 As SAF members would be aware, Oasis Academy will be opening their doors for admitting students to start the new Free School in September 2012

3.2 This school is currently operating outside of the Pan-London process.

3.3 This four-form entry secondary school based in the north of Lambeth has received 60 application forms for their school. At a rough estimate, 2/3 rd of the applications are from Lambeth residents and about 1/3 rd are from Southwark (though they do have two Westminster applications amongst the mix). They also state that they will be getting two statemented children and four others with SEN.

3.4 However, their deadline is approximately 3-4 weeks from the date of this report, and could be extended, to encourage further applications.

3.5 It is unknown who these children are as yet and whether they have made a preference application through coordination. Once the upload has been completed via the Pan-London Register, Lambeth will be seeking to acquire the names of the children so we can inform Westminster and Southwark LA as multiple offers will be inevitable.
