Can anyone please point me to the admissions criteria, specifically the 'Rules' (eg catchment, siblings etc) and how they are applied?

There's a section on admission rules (Sept. 2012 entry) in the primary schools' directory, starting on page 79:

Did you get an unexpected offer, drummer?

rather...

school offered is actually VERY good but is only an infant school and older siblings are already at the combined school we wanted :(

There should be a primary school allocation profile somewhere (which may or may not help)

drummer, if you would like to PM me the details I will double-check the rules. It is unusual for BCC to make a mistake, but let's go through the motions anyway, just in case.

S-A

have the rules (or the order in which they are applied) changed? I had thought that siblings had higher priority than they seem to.
