Primary School Admissions Arrangements 2023
Closing date for applications: 15 January 2023
Responsibility for applying online
Birmingham City Council’s School Admissions and Fair Access Service publishes
information on their website, informing parent/carers on how to start their child at
school. However, the responsibility for submitting an application online for
a child to start reception class, remains solely with parent/carers.
Information about schools includes the home to school distance (cut-off distance)
of the last child admitted at the time of offer for entry in September 2022, 2021
and 2020 where applicable. It is not possible to predict cut-off distances for 2023.
There is no guarantee that the same pattern will repeat in 2023, but all parents
and carers should please consider all the information below carefully before
expressing preferences for Reception class and Year 2-3 transfers.
Reception
You must apply for a Reception place, even if your child is attending a
nursery at that school.
Your child attending a nursery at a school does not give them priority for a
place in reception class, unless stated it is stated in their admissions
arrangements. Please see details below.
Children attending a nursery are not classed as siblings for reception
class, unless stated it is stated in their admissions arrangements. Please
see details below.
If you live in Birmingham, you can still apply for a place in another Local
Authority, but this must be via the Birmingham online application. Ensure
you check the admissions arrangements for non-Birmingham schools with
that Local Authority, just in case there are additional forms that you are
required to complete and return to the school in addition to completing
your online application to Birmingham Local Authority.
Year 2-3
You only need to apply for place in Year 3 if your child attends Year 2 at
the linked Infant school. Please see details below for all Birmingham
schools.
If your child does not attend linked infant school, you are welcome to apply
to the junior school, though you should be aware that children attending
the infants have overall priority. As such, you are very unlikely to gain a
place in the juniors.
If you live in Birmingham and your child attends a non-Birmingham infant
school, which is linked to separate junior school, you must make an online
application to Birmingham for a place in Year 3. Ensure you check the
admissions arrangements for non-Birmingham schools with that Local
Authority, just in case there are additional forms you are required to
complete and return to the school, in addition to completing your online
application to Birmingham Local Authority.
General
1 mile = 1609 metres
All schools are day schools. There are no boarding schools.
In addition to this document, please read our guide to finding a school and
other important information for your consideration on our website before
completing your online preference form.

How to make an In-Year application
In-Year Admissions
Children with an Education Health and Care Plan
Any child with an Education Health and Care Plan/statement of special
educational needs is required to be admitted to the school that is named in the
statement. This gives such children overall priority for admission to the named
school. This is not an oversubscription criterion.
Oversubscription Criteria
1. Baptised Catholic children who are looked after or previously looked after.
2. Baptised Catholic children living in the parish of St Thomas and St
Edmund of Canterbury (known as Erdington Abbey) who have a brother or
sister attending Abbey Catholic Primary School at the time of admission.
3. Baptised Catholic children living in the parish of St Thomas and St
Edmund of Canterbury (known as Erdington Abbey).
4. Other Baptised Catholic children who have a brother or sister attending
Abbey Catholic Primary School at the time of admission.
5. Other Baptised Catholic children.
6. Non-Catholic children who are looked after or previously looked after.
7. Non-Catholic children who have a brother or sister attending Abbey
Catholic Primary School at the time of admission.
8. Non-Catholic children.
If there is oversubscription within a category, the governors will give priority to
those children living closest to the school determined by the shortest distance. The
local authority’s ‘distance’ definition has been adopted. Distances are calculated
on the basis of a straight-line measurement from the applicant’s home address and
the front gate of the school on Sutton New Road.
Note: Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement
between the child’s home address and the front gate of the school on Sutton
New Road.

Children with an Education Health and Care Plan
Any child with an Education Health and Care Plan/statement of special
educational needs is required to be admitted to the school that is named in the
statement. This gives such children overall priority for admission to the named
school. This is not an oversubscription criterion.
Oversubscription Criteria
1. Looked after or previously looked after children (Parents should note that
Bournville Village Primary School has adopted the Local Authority’s ‘looked
after or previously looked after children’ definition).
2. Children living in the catchment area who, at the time of admission, have a
sibling at the school (Parents should note that Bournville Village Primary
School has adopted the Local Authority’s ‘Sibling’ definition). The catchment
area can be viewed at the School Office.
3. Other children living in the catchment area.
4. Children living outside the catchment area who, at the time of admission, have
a sibling at Bournville Village Primary School.
5. Other children living outside the catchment area.
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 Oversubscription 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.

Oversubscription Criteria

3. Nearness of the child’s home to the school as measured by a straight-line
measurement from the applicant’s home address and the main gate of the

The local authority uses a computerised system, 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. 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 school week. Parents may
be requested to supply documentary evidence to support the address used.
If offering places within any one of the criteria would cause the
schools admission number to be exceeded, then children living nearest will be
offered first. The local authority’s distance definition has been adopted. Distances
are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between the
applicant’s home address and the main gate of the school.
Note: Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement
between the applicant’s home address and the main gate of the school.

statement. This gives such children overall priority for admission to the named
school. This is not an oversubscription criterion.
Oversubscription Criteria
1. Looked After Children LAC, children who have been previously looked
after PLAC and Internationally Adopted and previously Looked After
Children IAPLAC (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. The academy is required to approve the
Head Teacher’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 stepbrother 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. In
the case of twins 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.
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.
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 main entrance on Warren Road.

can meet a child’s individual needs, and/or  
Professional evidence that outlines exceptional family circumstances
making clear why only one school can meet the child’s needs
If the requested school is not the nearest school to the child’s home address
clear reasons why the nearest school is not appropriate.  
For medical cases a clear explanation of why the child’s severity of illness or
disability makes attendance at a specific school essential. Evidence should make
clear why only one school is appropriate.
The medical circumstances must relate to the child, and parents will be expected
to provide supporting evidence from a consultant who is monitoring the child’s
condition (ie. not solely a General Practitioner (GP) in relation to medical
circumstances, or a social worker (or other appropriate professionally qualified
person) in relation to social circumstances.  All supporting evidence showing why
education should be at the preferred school must be submitted at the time of
application, when applying for Reception at the usual point of entry. The
Academy will consider all claimed Exceptional and Compelling Medical,
Psychological, Social or Special Access needs circumstances in line with
admissions criteria and inform parents of their decision.
An Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or Special Access
Reasons application will generally not be upheld in cases where more than one
school could meet the child’s need. In exceptional cases relating to a disability,
where more than one school in the area can meet the child’s specific needs, a
clear and compelling case can be made for the “nearest” school with the relevant
facilities, environment or location. You must clearly explain why attendance at the
“nearest” school with these facilities is essential.
Evidence relating to the medical or social circumstances of the parent can be
considered, but only if this impacts on the child and their need to attend a specific
school. Requests may not be considered if long-term mobility issues are cited
and you have not applied to your closest school. Please note that the following
are unlikely to be considered grounds for exceptional medical/social need(s):  
Speech & language delay  
Child is awaiting an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)  
Asthma, diabetes, eczema or allergies  
Car/travel sickness  
The need for a child to stay in friendship groups  
Family attending the same school  
Child care arrangements; and/or short term mobility issues.
If you feel that one of these examples should be considered, you will need to
prove how this has a significant impact on your child and why only the Academy
you have selected as your first preference can meet your child's exceptional
need(s). The application under this criterion will be reviewed by the Headteacher
and SENCO at the Academy.
Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the front gates of the school.

Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or Special
Access Reasons
Applications for Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or

application, unless there has been a significant and exceptional change of
circumstances within the family since the initial application was submitted.
All academies in E-ACT have experience in dealing with children with diverse
social and medical needs.  All applications must be made on a SIF form and
submitted directly to the Academy whilst still applying for a place within the usual
timescales for point of entry with Birmingham City Council or follow the in-year
admissions process.
In a few very exceptional cases, there are reasons why a child has to go to one
specific school. All applications are considered individually but a successful
application should include the following:  
Specific recent professional evidence that justifies why only one school
can meet a child’s individual needs, and/or  
Professional evidence that outlines exceptional family circumstances
making clear why only one school can meet the child’s needs
If the requested school is not the nearest school to the child’s home address

Children with an Education Health and Care Plan
Any child with an Education Health and Care Plan/statement of special
educational needs is required to be admitted to the school that is named in the
statement. This gives such children overall priority for admission to the named
school. This is not an oversubscription criterion.
Oversubscription Criteria
1. Children looked after by a Local Authority (in line with section 22 of the
Children Act) and children who were previously looked after but ceased to
be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a residence order
or special guardianship order). This includes those children who appear to
the admission authority to have been in state care outside of England and
ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted. These children are
referred to as internationally adopted previously looked after children
“IAPLAC”. Evidence will be required from the carer confirming that their
child meets the above criteria in accordance with the DfE’s non-statutory
guidance on the admission of IAPLAC.
2. Children with brothers or sisters (siblings) already at the school who will
still be there when they start school themselves.
3. Children who qualify for Pupil Premium funding, up to a maximum of 3
(priority will be given to those who live closest to the school).
4. Parent / guardian and child / children who regularly attend the local
Church of England Churches in Moseley (St Mary’s, St Anne’s and St
Agnes) for public worship. We define regular as meaning at least once a
month for a two-year period prior to the deadline date for applications and
this will be confirmed by the SIF, signed from the local minister of one of
the 3 applicable churches (see note 4).
5. Parent / guardian and child / children who regularly attend any other
Church of England Church. We define regular as meaning at least once a
month for a two-year period prior to the deadline date for applications and
this will be confirmed by the SIF, signed from the local minister (see note
4).
6. Parent / guardian and child / children who regularly attend any other
Christian church. For the purposes of these admission arrangements
'other Christian church' means a church which is Designated under the
Ecumenical Relations Measure 2018, nationally by the Archbishops of
Canterbury and York, or locally by the diocesan bishop, or which is a
member of Churches Together in England or affiliated to the Evangelical
Alliance or a Partner Church of Affinity. The list of nationally Designated
churches can be found at
www.churchofengland.org/sites/default/files/201904/list_of_designated_ch
urches_3_oct_18.pdf We define regular as meaning at least once a month
for a two-year period prior to the deadline date for applications and this will
be confirmed by the SIF, signed from the local minister (see note 4).
7. Children who live nearest the school.
Notes:
1. If applying under oversubscription Priority 3, 4, 5 or 6 above, parents are
required to complete a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) as evidence that
they meet one of these oversubscription criteria. For Priority 4, 5 or 6, this form
must be signed by the relevant Minister. Forms must be returned to the school by
the deadline date for Local Authority applications.
2. Children with a statement of special educational needs that names Moseley C
of E Primary School will be offered a place first. This is not an oversubscription
criterion and will reduce the number of places available.
3. Priority 3: ‘Pupil Premium’ does not include Early Years Pupil Premium or
the Service Premium. The Governors’ definition of Pupil Premium / Free School
Meals eligibility is if you are currently in receipt of any of the following:
Income-based Jobseeker Allowance
Income Support
Support under part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit
and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
Working Tax Credit run-on (paid for the 4 weeks after you stop qualifying
for Working Tax Credit)
The guaranteed element of State Pension Credit
Universal Credit
Declaration of eligibility for Pupil Premium / Free School Meals is required
on the additional information form at the point of application.
4. Priority 4 6. For admission to Reception at the start of the academic year,
attendance is required for a minimum of 2 years prior to the Local Authority’s
deadline date for applications If a family is moving into the area, a letter is
required for application under Priority 3, 4, 5 or 6 demonstrating attendance at a
Church of England or other Christian denomination church at least once a month
for a two-year period preceding the deadline date of applications, which must be
signed by the minister of their previous church.
Please note that in the event that during the period specified for attendance at
worship the church has been closed for public worship and has not provided
alternative premises for that worship, the requirements of these admissions
arrangements in relation to attendance will only apply to the period when the
church or alternative premises have been available for worship.
5. Under priority 2 a brother or sister must live at the same address and could be:
A brother or sister sharing the same parents;
a half-brother or half-sister, where two children share one parent; a
stepbrother or stepsister, where two children are related by a parent’s
marriage or civil partnership (a formal arrangement that gives same-sex
couples the same legal status as married couples);
the separate children of a couple who live together; or
an adopted or fostered brother or sister.
6. For the purposes of education law, the Department for Education considers a
‘parent’ to include:
all biological parents, whether they are married or not;
any person who, although not a biological parent, has parental
responsibility for a child or young person - this could be an adoptive
parent, a step-parent, guardian or other relative;
any person who, although not a biological parent and not having parental
responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person typically has
care of a child or young person if they are the person with whom the child
lives, either full or part time and who looks after the child, irrespective of
what their biological or legal relationship is with the child.
7. Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the centre of the school building. If offering
places within any one of the criteria would cause the schools admission number
to be exceeded, then children living nearest will be offered first. Distances are
measured by the Local Authority admissions system using ADDRESS-POINT®.
ADDRESS-POINT provides a national grid co-ordinate and a unique reference
for each postal address in Great Britain. The grid reference is provided to a
resolution of 0.1 metre (10cm). The accuracy of each ADDRESS-POINT is
such that each point will fall within the addressed building. If two or more
applicants share the same distance to a school and a place is available, the
applicant to whom the place will be offered will be determined by the Local
Authority by random selection.
Distances calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between home
and the centre of the school building.

Oversubscription Criteria
1. A ‘looked after child’ or a child who was previously ‘looked after’ pursuant
with the School Admissions Code.
2. Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or Special

applican’ts home address and the academy front gates.
Notes:
Supplementary Information Form (SIF)
Where the Academy accepts and approves the child has met the criterion, they
will write to the parents confirming the decision. A request for admission under
the criterion is not an application for admission, and parents will need to submit a
separate application in the usual way at the appropriate time.
Early Years Pupil Premium, the Pupil Premium or the Service
Pupil Premium
Early Years Pupil Premium
Early Years Pupil Premium (EYPP) is additional funding for early years pre-
school settings to improve the education they provide for disadvantaged 3 and 4
year-olds including, but not restricted to, those adopted from care.
Pupil Premium
The Pupil Premium is additional funding provided to publicly-funded schools in
England with the aim of raising the attainment of disadvantaged children. 
Service Pupil Premium
Pupils attract Service Pupil Premium if they meet one of the following criteria:
one of their parents is serving in the regular armed forces (including pupils with a
parent who is on full commitment as part of the full-time reserve service).
they have been registered as a ‘service child’ on the January school
census at any point since 2016 and/or
one of their parents died whilst serving in the armed forces and the pupil
receives a pension under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme or
the War Pensions Scheme On publication of this document the current

conditions-of-grant-2020-to-2021/pupil-premium-conditions-of-grant-
2020to-2021
Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or Special
Access Reasons
Applications for Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or
Special Access Reasons will only be considered at the time of the initial
application, unless there has been a significant and exceptional change of
circumstances within the family since the initial application was submitted.
All academies in E-ACT have experience in dealing with children with diverse
social and medical needs.  All applications must be made on a SIF form and
submitted directly to the Academy whilst still applying for a place within the usual
timescales for point of entry with Birmingham City Council or follow the in-year
admissions process.
In a few very exceptional cases, there are reasons why a child has to go to one
specific school. All applications are considered individually but a successful
application should include the following:  
Specific recent professional evidence that justifies why only one school
can meet a child’s individual needs, and/or  
Professional evidence that outlines exceptional family circumstances
making clear why only one school can meet the child’s needs
If the requested school is not the nearest school to the child’s home address
clear reasons why the nearest school is not appropriate.  
For medical cases a clear explanation of why the child’s severity of illness or
disability makes attendance at a specific school essential. Evidence should make
clear why only one school is appropriate.
The medical circumstances must relate to the child, and parents will be expected
to provide supporting evidence from a consultant who is monitoring the child’s
condition (ie. not solely a General Practitioner (GP) in relation to medical
circumstances, or a social worker (or other appropriate professionally qualified
person) in relation to social circumstances.  All supporting evidence showing why
education should be at the preferred school must be submitted at the time of
application, when applying for Reception at the usual point of entry. The
Academy will consider all claimed Exceptional and Compelling Medical,
Psychological, Social or Special Access needs circumstances in line with
admissions criteria and inform parents of their decision.
An Exceptional and Compelling Medical, Psychological, Social or Special Access
Reasons application will generally not be upheld in cases where more than one
school could meet the child’s need. In exceptional cases relating to a disability,
where more than one school in the area can meet the child’s specific needs, a
clear and compelling case can be made for the “nearest” school with the relevant
facilities, environment or location. You must clearly explain why attendance at the
“nearest” school with these facilities is essential.
Evidence relating to the medical or social circumstances of the parent can be
considered, but only if this impacts on the child and their need to attend a specific
school. Requests may not be considered if long-term mobility issues are cited
and you have not applied to your closest school. Please note that the following
are unlikely to be considered grounds for exceptional medical/social need(s):  
Speech & language delay  
Child is awaiting an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)  
Asthma, diabetes, eczema or allergies  
Car/travel sickness  
The need for a child to stay in friendship groups  
Family attending the same school  
Child care arrangements; and/or short term mobility issues.
If you feel that one of these examples should be considered, you will need to
prove how this has a significant impact on your child and why only the Academy
you have selected as your first preference can meet your child's exceptional
need(s). The application under this criterion will be reviewed by the Headteacher
and SENCO at the Academy.
Note: Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement
between the applican’ts home address and the academy front gates.

Notes
1) 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 (see the definition in section 22(1) of the Children Act
1989) at the time of making an application to a school.
A child is regarded as having been in state care in a place outside of England if
they were accommodated by a public authority, a religious organisation or any
other provider of care whose sole purpose is to benefit society (see Section
23ZZA(8) of the Children’s Act 1989 (inserted by Section 4 of the Children and
Social Work Act.
This includes children who were adopted under the Adoption Act 1976 (see
Section 12 adoption orders) and children who were adopted under the Adoption
and Children Act 2002 (see Section 46 adoption orders).
Child arrangement orders are defined Section 8 of the Children Act 1989, as
amended by Section 12 of the Children and Families Act 2014. Child
arrangement orders replace residence orders and any residence orders in force
prior to 22 April 2014 is deemed to be a child arrangements order.
Section 14A of the Children Act 1989, which defines a ‘special guardianship
order’ as an order appointing one or more individuals to be a child’s special
guardian (or special guardians).
2) A child is eligible for consideration when the parent(s) of child on the payroll of
the school completes the section on the home Local Authority’s common
application form.
3) For a place to be offered under this criterion, the information must confirm the
exceptional medical or social need, and demonstrate how The Olive School is
the only school that can meet the defined needs of the child. In all cases the
medical or social need must be permanent or long term. For medical conditions
affecting mobility, consideration will only be given if The Olive School is nearest
to the child’s home. It is the parent’s responsibility to provide the
information directly to the school. Failure to provide the supporting
information by the closing date may result in the application not being
considered under this criterion.
4) Siblings refers to full, half, adopted, step, foster children or the child of the
parents partner, and in every case, the child must be living in the same family
unit at the same address.
5) Birmingham City Council measures the distance in a straight line from home to
the main entrance of the school using the co-ordinates supplied by Ordnance
Survey.

being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their
social services functions (see the definition in section 22(1) of the Children Act
1989) at the time of making an application to a school.
A child is regarded as having been in state care in a place outside of England if
they were accommodated by a public authority, a religious organisation or any
other provider of care whose sole purpose is to benefit society (see Section
23ZZA(8) of the Children’s Act 1989 (inserted by Section 4 of the Children and
Social Work Act.
This includes children who were adopted under the Adoption Act 1976 (see
Section 12 adoption orders) and children who were adopted under the Adoption
and Children Act 2002 (see Section 46 adoption orders).
Child arrangement orders are defined Section 8 of the Children Act 1989, as
amended by Section 12 of the Children and Families Act 2014. Child
arrangement orders replace residence orders and any residence orders in force
prior to 22 April 2014 is deemed to be a child arrangements order.
Section 14A of the Children Act 1989, which defines a ‘special guardianship
order’ as an order appointing one or more individuals to be a child’s special
guardian (or special guardians).
2) A child is eligible for consideration when the parent(s) of child on the payroll of

the only school that can meet the defined needs of the child. In all cases the
medical or social need must be permanent or long term. For medical conditions
affecting mobility, consideration will only be given if The Olive School is nearest
to the child’s home. It is the parent’s responsibility to provide the
information directly to the school. Failure to provide the supporting
information by the closing date may result in the application not being
considered under this criterion.
4) Siblings refers to full, half, adopted, step, foster children or the child of the

unit at the same address.

supporting evidence directly to them by 15 January 2023 for those
that are making an application on the basis of social or medical
need. This should be from a doctor, social worker, educational
welfare officer or other appropriate person. It must clearly show why
the school is the most suitable and any difficulties if alternate
schools were offered.

a) The member of staff has been employed at the school for 2 or more
years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is
made, or

demonstrable skill shortage.

siblings, adopted siblings and other children living permanently at the
same address. Priority will not be given to children with siblings who are
former pupils of the school.

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 will continue to be on roll when the child joins the Academy.

educational needs is required to be admitted to the school that is named in the
statement. This gives such children overall priority for admission to the named
school. This is not an oversubscription criterion.
Oversubscription Criteria
1. Children looked after by a Local Authority (in accordance with section 22
of the Children Act 1989) and children who were previously looked after
but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a
child arrangements or special guardianship order. This includes those
children who appear to the admission authority to have been in state care
outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being
adopted (See note 1).
2. A child (or a parent-see note 2) 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 (See note 4).
3. A child with a sibling (see Note 3) 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 parent(s) regularly attends a local Church of England
Parish Church. We define regular as meaning once a month for a twelve-
month period immediately prior to the Local Authority’s deadline date for
applications and this will be confirmed by completing a Supplementary
Information Form (SIF) which is then signed by the incumbent. Local
means a Church within the Parish of Aston and Nechells. See appendix 1
5. Children whose parent(s) regularly attends any other Church of England
Church. We define regular as meaning once a month for a twelve-month
period immediately prior to the Local Authority’s deadline date for
applications and this will be confirmed by completing a Supplementary
Information Form (SIF) which is then signed by the incumbent. See
appendix 1
6. Children whose parent(s) regularly attend any other Christian church (For
the purposes of these admission arrangements ‘other Christian church’
means a church which is Designated under Ecumenical Relations
Measure 2018, nationally by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, or
locally by the diocesan bishop, or which is a member of Churches
Together in England or affiliated to the Evangelical Alliance or a Partner
Church of Affinity.) We define regular as meaning once a month for a
twelve-month period immediately prior to the Local Authority’s deadline
date for applications and this will be confirmed by completing a
Supplementary Information Form (SIF) which is then signed by the
incumbent. (See Note 5) See appendix 1
7. All other children. (See Note 6, 7 & 8)
Notes:
1: Children with an EHC Plan that names St. Clement’s CE Academy will be
offered a place first. This may reduce the number of places available.
2: For the purposes of education law, the Department for Education considers a
‘parent’ to include:
all biological parents, whether they are married or not.
any person who, although not a biological parent, has parental
responsibility for a child or young person - this could be an adoptive
parent, a stepparent, guardian or other relative.
any person who, although not a biological parent and not having parental
responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person typically has
care of a child or young person if they are the person with whom the child
lives, either full or part time and who looks after the child, irrespective of
what their biological or legal relationship is with the child.
3: Under priority 3, a brother or sister must live at the same address and could
be:
A brother or sister sharing the same parents.
A half-brother or sister, where two children share one parent: a
stepbrother or stepsister, where two children are related by a parent’s
marriage or civil partnership (a formal arrangement that gives same-sex
couples the same legal status as married couples).
The separate children of a couple who live together; or An adopted or
fostered brother or sister.
4: When applying under priority 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. Send any supporting information/documentation to
school if you wish to be considered under the ‘exceptional medical or
social needs’ criterion. Any supporting documents must be sent to school
by the national closing date.
5: 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.
6: A child’s home address is the place where the child is permanently resident
with his or her Parent(s). When a child lives between two addresses, the address
used for offering a school place will be where the child lives for most of the
school week (Monday to Friday). If care is split equally, the parents can choose
which address will be used.
In the event of a dispute between parents who each have parental
responsibility, the matter may ultimately need to be resolved by the courts.
7: If offering places within any one of the criteria would cause the school’s
admission number to be exceeded, then children living nearest will be offered
first. Distances are measured by the Local Authority using a computerised
system based on ordnance survey coordinates. The calculation of distance is on
the basis of a straight-line measurement between the applicant’s home address
and the school gate. If two or more applicants share the same distance to a
school and only one place is available, the applicant to whom the place will be
offered will be determined by the Local Authority by random selection (unless this
involves multiple births, in which case, all the siblings will be admitted).
8: Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the school gate of the academy.

4. Children, living in the ecclesiastical parish (Note 3) whose families are
involved in the worship and work of any other Christian Church (Note 4)
on a regular basis (i.e., in line with attendance expected at St Francis

5. Other children: proximity of home to school (Note 5).
In the event that any of the above categories is oversubscribed, children living
nearer to the school will be afforded the higher priority.
In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the church
or, in relation to those of other faiths, relevant place of worship has been closed
for public worship and has not provided alternative premises for that worship, the
requirements of these admissions arrangements in relation to attendance will
only apply to the period when the church or in relation to those of other faiths,
relevant place of worship or alternative premises have been available for public
worship.
Notes:
1. Siblings (brothers or sisters);
are considered to be those children who live at the same
address and either:
A brother or sister sharing the same parents;
A half-brother or sister, where two children share one parent; a
stepbrother or stepsister, where two children are related by a parent’s
marriage or civil partnership (a formal arrangement that gives same-sex
couples the same legal status as married couples);
The separate children of a couple who live together; or
An adopted or fostered brother or sister.
2. Parents / Guardians / Family Members
A parent is any person who has parental responsibility for or is the legal guardian
of the child. It is sufficient for one parent to attend church. Family members
include only parents, as defined above and siblings.
In order to obtain a signed statement from the vicar, as evidence of regular
attendance at St Francis Church, parents must obtain at least 18 stamps
over the nine-month period prior to application on a card issued by the
Church (which is also available from the school office). Attendance at
church includes but is not limited to Family Services, Messy Church, Rise
and Shine and Sunday School. It is the responsibility of the
parent/guardian to ensure the school receives the letter. It should be hand
delivered to the school for a receipt to be issued by 31st January 2023.

4. Other Christian Churches
Other Christian Churches include those who are members of Churches Together
in Britain and Ireland or who are affiliated to the Evangelical Alliance.
5. Distance home to school measurements
Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the school’s front gates. 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 the system. 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
statutory infant class size limit to be exceeded, the Local Authority, on behalf of
the Governing Body, will use a computerised system to randomly select the child
to be offered the final place.
Where appropriate, the Governing Body will give careful consideration to offering
places above the Admission Number to applications from individuals with
parental responsibility for children whose twin or sibling from a multiple birth is
admitted even when there are no other vacant places.
The home address of a pupil is considered to be the permanent residence of a
child. The address must be the child’s only or main residence for the majority of
the school week. Documentary evidence may be required.
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 in support of the address used. If care is split
equally, parents can choose which address will be used.
Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the school’s front gates.

1. Children looked after by a Local Authority (in accordance with section 22
of the Children Act 1989) and children who were previously looked after
but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a
residence order or special guardianship order. This includes those
children who appear to the admission authority to have been in state care
outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being
adopted.
2. Children with a sibling currently attending this school, at the time of
starting. (Please see Note 1 regarding definition of sibling)
3. Children who with their parent/guardian regularly attend St George’s
Church or another Christian church and live within the area represented

Road (both sides), Reservoir Road, Mostyn Road, Daisy Road, Leslie
Road, Sefton Road, Eldon Road, Carlyle Road, Stirling Road, Meyrick
Walk and all of Kenilworth Court.
We define regular as meaning at least once a month for a 12-month
period prior to application, from 1st January 2022 to 9th January
2023. This will be confirmed by the completion of the relevant part of
the SIF by the clergy/ faith leader stating that the regular attendance
criteria has been fulfilled. (Please see Note 3 regarding definition of a
Christian Church) NB in 2022 1st Sunday is 2nd Jan and in 2023 it is
8th January.
4. Other children in the above said area, in order of proximity of their home
address to school. (Please see Note 4 regarding definition of home
address and Note 5 regarding the LA proximity definition)
5. Other children outside the said area who with their parent/guardian

Church of England School.
We define regular as meaning at least once a month for a 12-month
period prior to application, from 1st January 2022 to 9th January
2023. This will be confirmed by the completion of the relevant part of

criteria has been fulfilled. (Please see Note 2 regarding definition of
parent and Note 3 regarding definition of another Christian church)
NB in 2022 1st Sunday is 2nd Jan and in 2023 it’s 8th January.
6. Other children outside the said area in order of proximity of their home
address to school (Please see Note 4 regarding definition of home
address and Note 5 regarding the LA proximity definition).
Notes:
* In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the
churches have been closed for public worship and have not provided alternative
premises for that worship, the requirements of these admissions arrangements in
relation to attendance will only apply to the period when the churches have been
available for public worship.
**Proximity is measured according to Birmingham Local Authority’s definition
(Please see Note 5).
1. Under priority 2, a brother or sister must live at the same address and could
be:
• A brother or sister sharing the same parents;
• A half-brother or sister, where two children share one parent; a stepbrother or
stepsister, where two children are related by a parent’s marriage or civil
partnership (a formal arrangement that gives same-sex couples the same legal
status as married couples);
• The separate children of a couple who live together; or
• An adopted or fostered brother or sister.
2. For the purposes of education law, the Department for Education considers a
‘parent’ to include:
• all biological parents, whether they are married or not;
• any person who, although not a biological parent, has parental responsibility for
a child or young person - this could be an adoptive parent, a step-parent,
guardian or other relative;
• any person who, although not a biological parent and not having parental
responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person typically has care of
a child or young person if they are the person with whom the child lives, either full
or part time and who looks after the child, irrespective of what their biological or
legal relationship is with the child.
3. A Christian church which is designated under the Ecumenical Relations
Measure 2018, nationally by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, or locally
by the diocesan bishop, or which is a member of Churches Together in England
or affiliated to the Evangelical Alliance or a Partner Church of Affinity. The list of
nationally designated churches can be found at:
https://www.churchofengland.org/sites/default/files/2019-
04/list_of_designated_churches_3_oct_18.pdf
4. A child’s home address is the place where the child is permanently resident
with his or her Parent(s). When a child lives between two addresses, the address
used for offering a school place will be where the child lives for most of the
school week (Monday to Friday). If care is split equally, the parents can choose
which address will be used.
In the event of a dispute between parents who each have parental responsibility,
the matter may ultimately need to be resolved by the courts.
5. If offering places within any one of the criteria would cause the school’s
admission number to be exceeded, then children living nearest within that
criterion will be offered first. Proximity distances are measured by the Local
Authority from the child’s home address point to the front gates of the school in
Beaufort Rd, Edgbaston B16. If two or more applicants share the same distance
to a school and only one place is available, the applicant to whom the place will
be offered will be determined by the Local Authority by random selection (unless
this involves multiple births, in which case, all the siblings will be admitted).
Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and the front gates of the school.

person who, although not a biological parent, has parental responsibility for a
child or young person - this could be an adoptive parent, a step-parent, guardian
or other relative; • any person who, although not a biological parent and not
having parental responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person

Note 4:
A child’s home address is the place where the child is permanently resident with
his or her Parent(s). When a child lives between two addresses, the address
used for offering a school place will be where the child lives for most of the
school week (Monday to Friday). If care is split equally, the parents can choose
which address will be used. [In the event of a dispute between parents who each
have parental responsibility, the matter may ultimately need to be resolved by the
courts.]
Note 5:
The school uses the Local Authority definition with regard to shared responsibility
and also in the event of there needing to be a tie breaker.
Note 6:
Children in the nursery class do not move on automatically into the
reception classes. If you child is in the nursery class, you still need to
apply for a reception class place along with other parents.

Parish of St Laurence Church, Northfield. (See explanation of
oversubscription criteria)
6. Other children. (See explanation of oversubscription criteria).
If offering places within any one of the criteria would cause the admission number
for the school to be exceeded, then children living nearest to the porch door of St
Laurence Church, will be offered a place first. Distances are measured by the local
authority in a straight line from the applicant’s home address.
Explanation of oversubscription criteria
Criterion 1
Children looked after by a Local Authority (in accordance with section 22 of the
Children Act 1989) at the time of making an application to the school and children
who were previously looked after but ceased to be so because they were
adopted or became subject to a Child Arrangements Order or Special
Guardianship Order immediately following having been looked after.
This includes those children who appear to the admission authority to have been
in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of
being adopted. 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 (see the definition in Section 22(1) of
the Children Act 1989).
In the case of previously looked after children, admission authorities may request
a copy of the adoption order, child arrangement order or special guardianship
order and a letter from the local authority that last looked after the child
confirming that he or she was looked after immediately prior to that order being
made.
Criterion 2
A brother or sister must live at the same address and could be:
• A brother or sister sharing the same parents;
• A half-brother or sister, where two children share one parent; a stepbrother or
stepsister, where two children are related by a parent’s marriage or civil
partnership (a formal arrangement that gives same-sex couples the same legal
status as married couples)
• The separate children of a couple who live together; or
• An adopted or fostered brother or sister.
Criterion 3
A Supplementary Information Form is required under this category.
For admission to Reception at the start of the academic year 2023-24,
attendance at a Church of England church between 1st January 2022 and 31st
December 2022.
In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the church
has been closed for public worship and has not provided alternative premises for
that worship, the requirements of these arrangements in relation to attendance
will only apply to the period when the church or alternative premises have been
available for public worship
Church Attendance will be measured by review of register of attendance held in
church and evidenced through completion of the Supplementary Information
Form, including number of attendances, with relevant section signed by the
incumbent.
For the purposes of education law, the Department for Education considers a
‘parent’ to include:
• all biological parents, whether they are married or not;
• any person who, although not a biological parent, has parental responsibility for
a child or young person - this could be an adoptive parent, a step-parent,
guardian or other relative;
• any person who, although not a biological parent and not having parental
responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person typically has care of
a child or young person if they are the person with whom the child lives, either full
or part time and who looks after the child, irrespective of what their biological or
legal relationship is with the child.
Criterion 4
A Supplementary Information Form is required under this category.
For admission to Reception at the start of the academic year 2023-24,
attendance for worship between 1st January 2022 and 31st December 2022.
In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the church
has been closed for public worship and has not provided alternative premises for
that worship, the requirements of these arrangements in relation to attendance
will only apply to the period when the church or alternative premises have been
available for public worship.
For the purposes of these admission arrangements 'another Christian church'
means a church which is Designated under the Ecumenical Relations Measure
2018, nationally by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, or locally by the
diocesan bishop, or which is a member of Churches Together in England or
affiliated to the Evangelical Alliance or a Partner Church of Affinity. The list of
nationally Designated churches can be found at
https://www.churchofengland.org/sites/default/files/2019-
04/list_of_designated_churches_3_oct_18.pdf
Church Attendance will be evidenced through completion of the Supplementary
Information Form, including number of attendances with relevant section signed
by the incumbent.
For the purposes of education law, the Department for Education considers a
‘parent’ to include:
• all biological parents, whether they are married or not;
• any person who, although not a biological parent, has parental responsibility for
a child or young person - this could be an adoptive parent, a step-parent,
guardian or other relative;
• any person who, although not a biological parent and not having parental
responsibility, has care of a child or young person. A person typically has care of
a child or young person if they are the person with whom the child lives, either full
or part time and who looks after the child, irrespective of what their biological or
legal relationship is with the child.
A child’s home address is the place where the child is permanently resident with
his or her Parent(s). When a child lives between two addresses, the address
used for offering a school place will be where the child lives for most of the
school week (Monday to Friday). If care is split equally, the parents can choose
which address will be used. In the event of a dispute between parents who each
have parental responsibility, the matter may ultimately need to be resolved by the
courts.
The home address will be checked to ensure it is within the parish of St Laurence
Church, Northfield as identified by the Church of England parish location tool at
www.achurchnearyou.com

other provider of care whose sole purpose is to benefit society (see Section
23ZZA(8) of the Children’s Act 1989 (inserted by Section 4 of the Children and
Social Work Act.

arrangement orders replace residence orders and any residence orders in force
prior to 22 April 2014 is deemed to be a child arrangements order.

order’ as an order appointing one or more individuals to be a child’s special
guardian (or special guardians).

only school that can meet the defined needs of the child. In all cases the medical
or social need must be permanent or long term. For medical conditions affecting
mobility, consideration will only be given if Starbank School is nearest to the

the school. Failure to provide the supporting information by the closing date
may result in the application not being considered under this criterion.
4) Siblings refers to full, half, adopted, step, foster children or the child of the

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

Birmingham Local Authority Admissions Arrangements
DEFINITIONS FOR COMMUNITY SCHOOLS/VOLUNTARY
CONTROLLED AND THOSE SCHOOLS THAT HAVE
ADOPTED LOCAL AUTHORITY DEFINITIONS
LOOKED AFTER AND PREVIOUSLY LOOKED AFTER
CHILDREN
Children who are looked after or immediately after being looked after became
subject to an adoption, child arrangement order or special guardianship order.
This includes any child / young person who is subject to a Full Care Order, an
interim Care Order, accommodated under Section 22(1) of the Children Act
1989, is remanded or detained into Local Authority accommodation under
Criminal Law or who has been placed for adoption. Birmingham Local Authority’s
School Admissions and Fair Access Service will obtain names of all children
who are looked after or will verify details for those applicants who indicate that
their child was previously looked after, within the appropriate age range). Places
for these children will be considered in accordance with each school’s admission
criteria. However, evidence may be requested from carer’s whose children
are looked after or were previously looked after by another Local Authority.
Children adopted from state care outside of England
Children who appear (to the admission authority) to have been in state care
outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted will
be given equal first priority in admission arrangements, alongside looked after
children (LAC) and children who were previously looked after by English local
authorities (PLAC). These children are referred to as internationally adopted
previously looked after children “IAPLAC”.
Evidence will be required from the carer confirming that their child meets the
above criteria in accordance with the DfE’s non-statutory guidance on the
admission of IAPLAC. School Admissions and Fair Access Service may be
required to check with colleagues from the Birmingham Virtual School about the
acceptability of any evidence provided by the carer of an IAPLAC before
considering their child’s application under this criterion.
SIBLINGS
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
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.
Children not adopted or fostered, nor related by a parents’ marriage, nor with one
natural parent in common, who are brought together as a family by a same sex
civil partnership and who are living at the same address, are also considered to
be siblings.
Children who attend either a linked infant or junior school, who will still be in
attendance at the time of admission, are considered as sibling claims.
All siblings must still be attending the preferred school at the time when
admission is sought. For example, for the September 2023 intake the sibling
must still be attending in September 2023. Children in Year 6 are not classed as
meeting the sibling criteria. Children attending Nursery are not classed as
siblings.
DISTANCE MEASUREMENTS TO SCHOOLS
Distances are calculated on the basis of a straight-line measurement between
the applicant’s home address and a point decided by the school (the point
measured from is included for each Community & Voluntary Controlled School).
The Local Authority uses a computerised system, which measures all distances
in metres. Ordnance Survey supplies the co-ordinates that are used to plot an
applicant’s home address and the address of the school.
TIE-BREAKER
In a very small number of cases, in which a school is oversubscribed, 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 (e.g.,a 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 Published Admission Number for the child’s year group to be
exceeded, the Local Authority will use a computerised system to randomly select
the child to be offered the final place.
HOME ADDRESS
A pupil’s home address is considered to be a residential property which is the
child’s only or main residence, and is either;
Owned by the child’s parent(s), or the person with parental responsibility
for the child; or
Leased to or rented by the child’s parent(s), or the person with parental
responsibility under lease or written rental agreement of not less than
twelve months duration.
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 satisfy the authority that the child lives at the
address put forward by the parents.
If you move address after the final closing date of 15 January 2023, your
school application and preference(s) must be considered from the address
you were residing at, at the time you submitted your application that you
provided proof of address for. However, you must send proof of your new
address as soon as you have it so we can ensure any letters are sent to the
correct address and that your address can be updated after the offer of
places on 17 April 2023 for any waiting lists your child may be eligible to be
on.
For details of examples of acceptable proof of address please visit our website;
www.birmingham.gov.uk/schooladmissions-proofofaddress
The School Admissions and Fair Access Service may also carry out
unannounced home visits to confirm the applicant’s home address.
If a school is offered on the basis of an address, which is subsequently
found to be different from a child’s normal and permanent home address,
that place will be withdrawn (retracted). The decision to retract an offer of a
school place that has been obtained fraudulently is final and will not be
reviewed. There is no right to appeal against the decision.
GENERAL INFORMATION
LATE APPLICATIONS
You are encouraged to ensure that your application is received on time (15
January 2023). Late applicants are less likely to be offered a place at any of their
preferred schools. Late applications will be processed after the offer of places on
17 April 2023.
CHANGE OF PREFRENCES
You can amend your order of school preferences on your online application
between 1 October 2022 and the final closing date of 15 January 2023. If you
amend your order of preferences, or make any changes to your online
application, you MUST ensure that you re-submit your application, otherwise it
will not be processed. Please note - you will not be able to amend your order
of preferences after 15 January 2023, and any changes after that date will
be treated as a late change of preferences and will not be processed until
after the offer of places on 17 April 2023.
APPEALS
If your child is not successful in gaining admission into your preferred school, you
have the right of appeal against the decision, to refuse your child a place there.
For details of the appeals procerss and which appeals are managed by School
Admissions and Fair Access Service or those managed by the school itself,
please visit: The school appeals process
WAITING LISTS
Waiting lists for those children, who did not meet the criteria for their preferred
schools for the Reception and Year 2-3 September intakes, will be created 3
weeks following the offer of places on 17 April 2023.
Waiting lists will be managed by School Admissions and Fair Access Service, or
by the school itself, please check www.birmingham.gov.uk/schooladmissions
after 17 April 2023 for further details.
Waiting lists are kept in strict order, in accordance with each school’s
oversubscription criteria; waiting lists are not fixed and are subject to change.
Late applicants must be slotted onto a waiting list in accordance with the school’s
oversubscription criteria.
Please note that a child’s inclusion on a waiting list is no guarantee that a
place will be offered.
All waiting lists will be maintained by the respective school itself from September
2023 and become their In-Year waiting list. The waiting list must be maintained
by the school up until 31 December 2023. After this date, they may be
disbanded. However, most schools will maintain their In-Year waiting lists up until
until the end of the academic year before disbanding them.
Looked after and previously looked after children, and those that meet the
Fair Access Protocol, have precedence above any other children on an In-
Year waiting list.
DEFERRED ENTRY/SUMMER BORN
By law, parents must ensure that their children are receiving suitable full- time
education at the beginning of the term after their 5th birthday.
A child who reaches the age of five during the 2023/2024 summer term would
reach compulsory school age in September 2024.
However, it is not possible to accept a place in the Reception Class for
September 2023, but defer the child’s admission until the beginning of the
2024/2025 academic year, and if a child did not take up their place in a
Reception Class in 2023/2024, a separate in-year application would need to be
made for the child to enter the school in Year 1.
Alternatively, a parent has the right for their child to be admitted on a part-time
basis during the Reception Class year, but not beyond the point that they reach
compulsory school age.
In both cases above a school place is held for the child until they take it up.
Parents must notify the school in writing of their intention to delay their child’s
start date.
If you are seeking to defer entry for your child please refer to our website:
www.birmingham.gov.uk/deferred_school_entry
CATHOLIC DEFINITION/EVIDENCE OF BAPTISM
A “Baptised Catholic” is one who:
Has been baptised into full communion (Cf. Catechism of the Catholic Church,
837) with the Catholic Church by the Rites of Baptism of one of the various
ritual Churches in communion with the See of Rome. Written evidence of this
baptism can be obtained by recourse to the Baptismal Registers of the church
in which the baptism took place (Cf. Code of Canon Law, 877 & 878).
Or
Has been validly baptised in a separated ecclesial community and
subsequently received into full communion with the Catholic Church by the Rite
of Reception of Baptised Christians into the Full Communion of the Catholic
Church. Written evidence of their baptism and reception into full communion
with the Catholic Church can be obtained by recourse to the Register of
Receptions, or in some cases, a sub-section of the Baptismal Registers of the
church in which the Rite of Reception took place (Cf. Rite of Christian Initiation,
399).
WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF BAPTISM
The Governing bodies of Catholic schools and Boards of Directors of Catholic
Academies will require written evidence in the form of a Certificate of Baptism or
Certificate of Reception before applications for school places can be considered
for categories of “Baptised Catholics”. A Certificate of Baptism or Reception is to
include: the full name, date of birth, date of Baptism or Reception, and parent(s)
name(s). The certificate must also show that it is copied from the records kept by
the place of Baptism or Reception.
Those who would have difficulty obtaining written evidence of Catholic
Baptism/Reception for a good reason, may still be considered as Baptised
Catholics but only after they have been referred to their parish priest who, after
consulting the Vicar General, will decide how the question of Baptism/Reception
is to be resolved and how written evidence is to be produced in accordance with
the law of the Church.
Those who would be considered to have good reason for not obtaining written
evidence would include those who cannot contact the place of
Baptism/Reception due to persecution or fear, the destruction of the church and
the original records, or where Baptism/Reception was administered validly but
not in the Parish church where records are kept.
Governors and Boards of Directors may request extra supporting evidence when
the written documents that are produced do not clarify the fact that a person was
baptised or received into the Catholic Church, (i.e., where the name and address
of the Church is not on the certificate or where the name of the Church does not
state whether it is a Catholic Church or not.)
CATHOLIC PARISH BOUNDARY MAPS
To check if you reside within a Parish for Catholic Schools, please check here:
www.birminghamdiocese.org.uk/boundary-map
SCHOOL UNIFORMS
Governing Bodies are responsible for deciding whether or not pupils should wear
a school uniform. Parents should contact individual schools for details of the
uniform policy and any sports kits. Generally, school uniforms should be
available in high street shops and other retail outlets, rather than from one
supplier. Schools should offer arrangements, so that no family feels unable to
apply for admission on account of high uniform costs, and details should be
available from individual schools.
RELIGION/BELIEF
The law requires all schools without a religious character to provide religious
education that fulfils the requirements of a locally agreed syllabus. For
Birmingham schools this is the Birmingham Agreed Syllabus for Religious
Education. Voluntary Aided Schools with a religious character normally follow a
Diocesan syllabus or one agreed by the governing body.
Religious Education (RE) is intended for all pupils. However, parents have the
right to withdraw their child from all part of RE. This will need careful thought and
discussion and parents are encouraged to discuss with Head Teachers the
Religious Education provision in the school.
All schools are also required to have collective worship for all pupils every day.
This will follow a pattern agreed by the governors of the school. Collective
worship is intended for all pupils. However, parents also have the right to
withdraw their child from collective worship.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO SCHOOL FUNDS AND SCHOOL
TRIPS
There is no charge or cost related to the admission of a child to a school. Many
schools operate a school fund to which they ask parents to contribute small
sums. Such donations are entirely voluntary. The money collected in this way is
used to pay for activities or to buy equipment that is not provided from the school
budget.
School trips are an important part of school life and can contribute to the ethos of
the school. Schools may ask parents for a voluntary contribution towards the cost
of a school trip but may not charge for a trip, which takes place in school hours or
is part of the National Curriculum. Many schools offer help to those who are
unable to afford the cost of school trips. Details are available from individual
schools.
UK CROWN SERVANTS AND MILITARY FAMILIES
Birmingham School Admissions will process applications from UK crown
servants or UK military families, with evidence from their employers or
commanding officers that they are returning to the area ahead of any move.
We will accept any posting or quartering address as a ‘home’ address in the
absence of any actual home address.
