Year 2 to Year 3 transfer Parents with a child attending St Benedict’s Infant School in Year 2 who would like their child to transfer to Ark Chamberlain in Year 3 will be required to

complete a local authority transfer from Year 2 to Year 3 form for a place at the school.

Admission criteria Where the academy is named on a pupil’s Statement of Special Educational Needs or Education and Health Care Plan, that child will be admitted by the academy. Where fewer applications are received than places available, the academy will offer places to all those who have applied. If the number of applications for admission to the nursery or primary school is greater than the PAN, applications will be considered against the criteria and order set out below: a) Looked After Children and Children who have been previously looked after (pursuant to the Admissions Code). b) Children who will be attending the linked infant school (St Benedict’s Infant School, St Benedicts Road, Small Heath, Birmingham, B10 9DP, URN 103261) at the time of application and will still be in attendance at the end of Year 2. c) Children who at the time of the admission have a sibling who attends the academy or St Benedict’s Infant School. Siblings (brothers or sisters) are considered to be those children who live at the same address and either: i. have one or both natural parents in common; or ii. are related by a parent’s marriage or are brought together as a family by a same sex civil partnership; or iii. are adopted or fostered by a common parent. Unrelated children living at the same address, whose parents are living as partners, are also considered to be siblings. d) Distance measurement – Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight- line measurement between the applicant’s home address and the front school gates. A child’s home will be the address at which the child normally resides and which has been notified to the academy and other relevant agencies as being the child’s normal place of residence.

Tie breaker: If Ark Schools is unable to distinguish between applicants using the published criteria, including those who live in blocks of flats with the same building entrance, places will be offered via a random draw which will be supervised by someone independent of the academy.

Note: In the case of multiple births or brothers and sisters in the same year group, where there is only one place available in the academy, both will be considered together as one application.

Admission criteria Where the academy is named on a pupil’s Statement of Special Educational Needs or Education and Health Care Plan, that child will be admitted by the academy. If the number of applications for admission to the nursery or primary school is greater than the PAN, applications will be considered against the criteria and order set out below:

1. Looked After Children and Children who have been previously looked after (pursuant to the Admissions Code).

2. Children of staff at the school where there is a demonstrable skill shortage – Children of members of staff will have priority in the oversubscription criteria if the staff member is filling a post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage. Ark Schools is required to approve the Principal’s designation of such posts and confirm the assessment that a member of staff appointed

meets the requirements of the shortage. Priority will be limited to one place for each form of entry in any year.

3. Children who at the time of the admission have a sibling who attends the academy. For this purpose “sibling” means a whole, half or step-brother or - sister or an adopted child resident at the same address. In respect of applications to the primary school, the fact that an applicant has a sibling attending the nursery school will not be a factor giving rise to priority.

4. Children of staff in the school – Where there is no demonstrable skill shortage, priority may be given where the academy is oversubscribed to a child of a person who will have been employed in the academy for two or more years at the time the application for admission is made. Priority will be limited to one place for each form of entry in any year.

5. Distance measurement – A child’s home will be the address at which the child normally resides and which has been notified to the academy and other relevant agencies as being the child’s normal place of residence. i. In those cases where the relevant LA measures distance on behalf of Ark Schools, the method they adopt for measurement and also selection between equal applicants and those living in flats will apply. ii. In those cases where Ark Schools is required to carry out the measurement itself, priority will be given to those children who live closest to the school using a straight-line measurement taken from Ordnance Survey Data from the academy building’s main reception to the main entrance of the child’s home

Where a child resides in a block of flats, the distance will be measured from the academy building’s main reception to the main entrance of the building in which the flats are located.

Note: In the case of multiple births or brothers and sisters in the same year group, where there is only one place available in the academy, both will be considered together as one application.

BOURNVILLE INFANT Linden Road, Birmingham B30 1JY Tel: 0121 464 8777 www.bournvilleinfantschool.org.uk Type: Voluntary Aided Age Range: 4-7 Published Admission Number: 90 Approx. Number on Roll: 270 DfE No: 330 3354 Ward: Bournville

In each of the above categories, places will be allocated according to the distance between home and school, beginning with children living closest to Bournville Infant School and whose circumstances remain unchanged on the day of admission. The school reserves the right to withdraw the offer of a place

if a change in circumstances between allocation and admission would have resulted in a child not being offered a place at the time of allocation.

Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between the applicant’s home address and the centre of the main school building. The Local Authority uses a computerised system, which measures all distances in metres. Ordnance Survey supply the co-ordinates that are used to plot an applicant’s home address within this system. Proof of address will be required by the school.

Where parents have shared responsibility for a child, and the child lives with both parents for part of the week, then the main residence will be determined as the address where the child lives the majority of the week. Parents may be requested to supply documentary evidence to support the address used.

In a very small number of cases it may not be possible to decide between the applications of those pupils who are the final qualifiers for a place, when applying the published admission criteria. For example, this may occur when children in the same year group live at the same address, or if the distance between the home and school is exactly the same, for example, blocks of flats. If there is no other way of separating the application according to the admissions criteria and to admit both or all of the children would cause the legal limit to be exceeded, the Local Authority will use a computerised system to randomly select the child to be offered the final place.

Parents should note that admission to Bournville Junior School will not result in automatic admission to Bournville Infant School for younger siblings. The admission of younger siblings will be dependent on a place being available to which they are entitled under the admission criteria.

Parents with a child attending Bournville Infant School in Year 2 who would like their child to transfer to Bournville Junior School in Year 3 will be required to complete a Local Authority Preference Form for a place at the school.

Admission Criteria Year 2 to 3 1. Looked after or previously looked after children. 2. Children on register at Bournville Infant School at the end of Year 2 3. Children living in the catchment area who, at the time of admission, have a sibling in either the Junior or the Infant School. (Parents should note that Bournville Junior School has adopted the Local Authority’s ‘sibling’ definition.) 4. Other children living in the catchment area. 5. Children living outside the catchment area who, at the time of admission, have a sibling in either the Junior or the Infant School. 6. Other children living outside the catchment area.

In each of the above categories, places will be allocated according to the distance between home and school, beginning with children living closest to Bournville Junior School on the day of admission. Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between the applicant’s home address and the centre of the main school building. The Local Authority uses a computerised system, which measures all distances in metres. Ordnance Survey supply the co-ordinates that are used to plot an applicant’s home address within this system. Proof of address will be required by the school.

In a very small number of cases it may not be possible to decide between the applications of those pupils who are the final qualifiers for a place, when applying the published admission criteria. For example, this may occur when children in the same year group live at the same address, or where there are twins, or if the distance between the home and school is exactly the same, for example, blocks of flats.

provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (see definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989). ‘Previously looked after children’ are children who were previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to adoption, a child arrangements order, or special guardianship order. These definitions are set nationally, by the Department for Education.

 ‘Siblings’ are defined as “children who live at the same address and either: i Have one or both natural parents in common; or ii. Are related by a parent’s marriage; or iii. Are adopted or fostered by a common parent. Unrelated children living at the same address, whose parents are living as partners, are also considered to be siblings.” The sibling must be at the school at the point of proposed admission. Note – this definition is the one used by the Local Authority in relation to admissions to schools that they maintain - REAch2 schools adopt the same definition to avoid any confusion and keep arrangements as simple as possible for local parents and carers.

 This option is only available for teaching or leadership staff with a permanent contract to work at the school (and not employees in REAch2 regional or central teams); it will be subject to confirmation by an independent REAch2 regional non-executive that, on the evidence available, the post does indeed relate to a skills shortage in the area. This is compliant with the statutory School Admissions Code – in fact the code allows for a wider definition/scope for children of staff but REAch2 has chosen a more limited approach.

 ‘Home-to-school distance’ is defined/measured “on the basis of a straight line measurement between the applicant’s home address and the school’s front gate. Birmingham City Council uses a computerised system called Cartology, which measures all distances in metres. Ordnance Survey supplies the co- ordinates that are used to plot an applicant’s home address within this system.” ‘Home address’ is defined as the “child’s normal permanent home address. Where parents have shared responsibility for a child, and the child lives with both parents for part of the week then the main residence will be determined as the address where the child lives for the majority of the week.”. Note – these definitions are used by the Local Authority in relation to admissions to schools that they maintain – REAch2 schools adopt the same definition to avoid any confusion and keep arrangements as simple as possible for local parents and carers. The school and REAch2 as admissions authority reserve the right to carry out additional checks on the accuracy of the home address provided. Tie-breaker Where the admission number given above is reached part way through one of the above over-subscription criteria, the remaining places available are allocated on proximity to the school.

4. Home-to-school distance – meaning that the remaining places are allocated in order of each child’s proximity to the school.

 ‘Looked after children’ are (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 (see definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989). ‘Previously looked after children’ are children who were previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to adoption, a child arrangements order, or special guardianship order. These definitions are set nationally, by the Department for Education.

 ‘Home-to-school distance’ is defined/measured “on the basis of a straight line measurement between the applicant’s home address and the school’s front gate. Birmingham City Council uses a computerised system called Cartology, which measures all distances in metres. Ordnance Survey supplies the co-ordinates that are used to plot an applicant’s home address within this system.”. ‘Home address’ is defined as the “child’s normal permanent home address. Where parents have shared responsibility for a child, and the child lives with both parents for part of the week then the main residence will be determined as the address where the child lives for the majority of the week.”. Note – these definitions are used by the Local Authority in relation to admissions to schools that they maintain – REAch2 schools adopt the same definition to avoid any confusion and keep arrangements as simple as possible for local parents and carers. The school and REAch2 as admissions authority

reserve the right to carry out additional checks on the accuracy of the home address provided.

Tie-breaker Where the admission number given above is reached part way through one of the above over-subscription criteria, the remaining places available are allocated on proximity to the school.

Summary of Admissions Policy (visit www.olivebirmingham.com for detailed policy)

If the school is oversubscribed, the school will admit children in accordance with the oversubscription criteria below, once all children with a statement of special educational needs or education, health and care plan, naming the school, have been admitted.

Oversubscription Criteria 1. Looked after children or a child who was previously looked after, but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangements, or special guardianship order (see note 1).

2. Children with a sibling who is a pupil already attending The Olive School, Birmingham at the time of both application and admission (see note 2).

3. Children of staff employed at The Olive School, Birmingham for 2 or more years at the time at which the application for admission is made, and / or the member of staff has been recruited to fill a post where there is a demonstrable skill shortage (see note 3).

4. Children for whom the Governing Body accepts that they have proven, exceptionally strong special, medical or social circumstances, which are directly relevant to attendance at The Olive School, Birmingham.

Professional supporting evidence must be provided by the parent(s) / carer(s) from e.g. a consultant, doctor, psychologist, social worker or from another professional. A place will only be offered, if the Governing Body accepts the view of the professional, which confirms that the existing medical or social difficulties will be exacerbated if admission is not offered at The Olive School, Birmingham (see note 4).

The distance will be measured in a straight line using Birmingham City Council’s computerised mapping system. This will measure distance from home to the main entrance of the school, using the co-ordinates supplied by Ordnance Survey.

If criterion 5 is oversubscribed, then priority will be given to the children in accordance with the criteria set out in note 5.

For all criteria, if the distance from the children’s homes to The Olive School, Birmingham or Sparkhill Library or Eden Boys’ School, Birmingham is the same, which includes the same geographical property reference (such as a block of flats), then random allocation will be used as a tie-breaker. The random allocation process will be undertaken by Birmingham City Council’s School Admissions Team at the Council Offices in the presence of a school representative.

Address The address given must be where the child and parent(s) / carer(s) live permanently. It must not be the child minder’s, grandparent’s or other relative’s

If there is joint custody for the child, then the address of the parent(s) / carer(s) receiving the child benefit will be used.

2. Siblings refers to full, half, adopted, step, foster children or the child of the parent(s) / carer(s) partner, and, in every case, the child must be living in the same family unit at the same address.

3.

4. It is important that you state on the application form and if required, attach a letter, clearly setting out your reasons for requesting admission under the medical or social criteria. You must also provide written supporting evidence from a professional with the application form.

A looked-after child and child who was looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted or, immediately after being looked after, became subject to a residence order or special guardianship order. 2. A child (or a parent) who have exceptional medical or social needs that make it essential for a child to attend St Clement's rather than any other. These needs must be fully supported by written evidence from the appropriate professional person involved with the family. 3. A child with a sibling already on roll at St Clement's at the time of application and who is expected still to be in attendance at the time of entry to the school. 4. Children whose parents have made an application on denominational grounds, defined as anybody whose parent regularly attends a local Church of England Parish Church.

Notes When applying under criterion 2 (exceptional medical or social needs), you must include supporting evidence from an independent professional person who is aware of the situation and supports your reasons for preferring St Clement's. This supporting evidence must clearly demonstrate why the school is the most suitable and must illustrate the difficulties that would be caused if your child had to attend another school. The person supplying the evidence should be a doctor, heath visitor, social worker, etc. who is aware of your child’s or your own case. St Clement's reserves the right to ask for further evidence or clarification where

necessary and may seek the advice of appropriate educational professionals where necessary. As regards an application on denominational grounds (4, 5 or 6), in respect of a child who has moved to an address within two miles of St Clement's, and who attended a Church in the vicinity of their former address, Church attendance at their previous Church shall be counted as if it was within the category 4, 5 or 6, as applicable.

How to make an in-year application Applications made outside the normal admission round (in-year admissions) must be made directly to the school(s) concerned. The local authority will provide an in-year application form for parents to complete. Admission criteria a) A ‘looked after child’ or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, child arrangements, or special guardianship order. A looked after child is a child who is a) looked after by a local authority or b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in their exercise of their social services functions, in accordance with section 22 (1) of the Children Act 1989. b) Children for whom it is essential to be admitted to the Academy because of special circumstances to do with significant medical or social needs, which relate to the child or an immediate member of the child’s family. Applications must be supported by medical evidence from a GP or hospital consultant, social worker or similar professional. I. The supporting evidence should set out the particular reasons why the Academy is the most suitable and the difficulties that would be caused if the child had to attend another school. This evidence must be sent to the Academy by the application closing date for the child to be considered under this criterion. c) Children who, on the date of admission, will have a sibling (i.e. a natural brother or sister, or a half brother or sister, or a legally adopted brother or sister or half-brother or sister, or step brother or sister) who will be living with them at the same address and on roll of the Academy. Children will be considered under this criterion if they have a sibling who attends the Academy and who will continue to be on roll when the child joins the Academy. d) Children of staff, where the member of staff has been employed by the Academy for 2 or more years at the time of application, or the member of staff was recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage. e) Children living nearest to the Academy. Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement (as the crow flies) between the applicant’s home address and the Academy front gates. The LA uses a computerised system, which measures all distances in metres. Ordnance Survey supply the

co-ordinates that are used to plot an applicant’s home address and the address of the Academy.

Within each of these categories, priority is given to those who live nearest the academy, calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between home and the academy front gates.
