We are consulting to amend our admissions oversubscription criteria. We propose to add a criterion which would place the staff of children as part of the application of our admissions policy. The proposed wording is as follows:

ii.            Children of staff: priority will next be given to children of staff at the school, in either of the following circumstances:

·         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 

·         The member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage

Please find attached the Admission Policy for September 2025 onwards together with information regarding the oversubscription criteria amendment.

Any comments regarding this as part of the consultation should be forwarded to wss-consultation@swale.at
