  • Oversubscription Criteria 2019-20
    1. Looked After Children or previously Looked After Children who are on the eligible list.
    2. Children on the eligible list who are entitled to Pupil Premium funding at the time of the test, or who are from families entitled to claim free school meals at the time of the test. Parent’s consent to the school seeking confirmation of Pupil Premium eligibility from the child’s primary school will be sought on the online supplementary information form. For those students not entitled to Pupil Premium funding at the time of the test but who are from families entitled to claim free school meals at the time of the test, evidence of eligibility will be required e.g. from the Devon Citizens Portal website.
    3. Children of staff with a contracted commitment (i.e. not casual or supply staff) in either or both of the following circumstances: (i) where the member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made, and/or (ii) the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.
    Rank order based on the total score achieved in the tests of students on the eligible list.
