Most schools give priority when allocating places to those who have a sibling (brother or sister) who will still be attending the school when the child is due to start . For entry into an infant school siblings attending the linked junior school will also usually be taken into account. The sibling will still need to be attending the linked junior when the child is due to start at the infant school.
If this applies to you please remember to name the sibling on your application. To see the definition of a brother or sister, please see the school’s admissions policy.
The following table shows which infant and junior schools are linked for sibling purposes:
