Numbers and over-subscription for casual entries in Year 7 and Years 8-11

This paragraph applies where a casual vacancy occurs because of a student leaving the roll of the School. No applications for casual admission will be agreed if the number in that year group would exceed the Published Admission Number as a consequence. All applicants will be tested. The tests will not aim to replicate the 11+ but will seek to establish whether the applicant can sustain the pace of the school's classroom education and fit within the ability levels and parameters of achievement of the relevant year group. The place will be offered to the student with the highest score.

If a number of applicants are tested at the same time for a place or places and results of the tests indicate it is not possible to discriminate between the last two candidates qualifying for a place academically, preference will be given to an applicant who has a sister currently in the school. If this does not resolve the matter, then preference will be given to the student(s) who live/s closest to the school by straight line measurement.

Resubmission and Timing of Applications

If an application for admission is unsuccessful, the student will remain in the order of merit for their year group. They will not be entitled to resit the entry examination during the key stage but will be considered for any future vacancies alongside any new applicants. A student who has taken a test for casual admission in Key Stage 3 may be retested once they reach Key Stage 4.
