ADMISSIONS CRITERIA
|
Pupils with an Education, Health and Care Plan (formerly a Statement of Special Educational Needs) will be given special consideration based on their Plan. Looked After children will then have priority admission. Children who have a specific social, medical or psychological need will then be considered.
Following these children, priority will be given to siblings of pupils who will remain on role at time of entry, and then children who live closest to the school on the basis of straight line distance. This is measured from the school Reception on Dulwich Village to the child's home address. |

CATCHMENT AREA
|
We do not have a catchment area as such; children who live closest to the school on the basis of straight line measurement will be admitted, so the 'catchment' changes every year. Opposite are details of the furthest distances in metres from the past few years.

In Year Application Process In year application form |
Parents should note that we are a very over-subscribed school and there are currently no places available in any of our year groups.
|
WAITING LIST
|
The school maintains a waiting list for children who have been unsuccessful in gaining a place, whether making a Year 3 application or an in year application to another year group.
Parents may keep their child's name on the waiting list for as long as they wish. |
The waiting list is ordered in accordance with our admissions criteria, not from the date an application was made, so a child's position on the list may alter depending on additional applicants.
