Allocation Methodology

[cavalier]

Hi - I'm new to this so please bear with me.

I just wanted see if anyone knew what happened in the scenario where a child "A" score is say 243 and has a third choice of say Rickmansworth and another (Child "B") has a lower score but has Rickmansworth as his/her first choice? - obviously assuming no other factors apply, just purely on academic scores.

Does A take priority over B or vice versa?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

If score is all that counts (and presumably you have checked that this is the case at Rickmansworth) and also presuming that child A can't get a place at their first 2 schools then they would get priority over B

Thanks for clearing that up.
