Admissions Policy

Rickley Junior School

Places are allocated in line with Milton Keynes Council’s admissions criteria shown below:

 

 

· Children who have a statement of special educational needs.  Generally children who live in the school’s defined area who also hold a statement of special educational needs will be given priority over other applicants.  Where the school has specialist provision, not available elsewhere, applications will be considered from outside the school’s defined area and, if appropriate, places will be allocated.

 

· Children who are looked after by the Local Authority.

 

· Children who live in the defined area and have a sibling on roll at the school at the time of admission.

 

· Children who live in the defined area served by the school.  Proof of residence may be required.

 

· Children who live outside the defined area and have a sibling on roll at the school at the time of entry.

 

· Children who live outside the defined area of the school.

 

 

In the event of over subscription, once places have been allocated under the criteria above the remaining places will be awarded according to the proximity of the child’s home to school, as measured by the nearest available route.  This is from the front door of the child’s home to the school’s nearest entrance gate.
