The number of children who sat the test at the school and reached the qualifying standard:
Number of Pupils Tested 401 Number of Qualifiers 260 Highest Score Achieved 282 The school received 315 all preference applications. This exceeded the places available, and it was necessary to apply their oversubscription criteria to allocate places.
For National Offer Day, the 186 places were offered as follows:
Category Criteria Number of pupils EHCP All students with an EHCP naming the school on the plan 0 1 The child is in public care or has previously been in public care 3
1 within catchment 2 outside.
2 . There is a sibling on roll at the school at the time of application 57 Total - 24 within catchment, 33 outside 3 Children of staff 1 – child in catchment 4 The school is 9 miles or less from the child's home address by driving distance. If there is oversubscription within this criterion, priority will be given to the child living closest to the school by driving distance. 84 5 The child is registered as Ever6 FSM at the time of application 3 6 The school is more than 9 miles from the child's home address by driving distance. If there is oversubscription within this criterion, children will be ranked by their aggregate standardised 11+ score in decreasing order, with the highest score being awarded a place first. 38 It was not possible to offer a place to all students within the last admissions category. The last pupil offered a place in this category scored 249 on the test.
From all categories 76 students are out of the 9 mile radius of the school 90 were from within it.
58 children were added to the reserve list on national offer day.
Lincolnshire County Council does not hold score data per child – the school return a ranked list, so the Council does not have the scores of the pupils from the catchment area or the first unsuccessful applicant. The lowest score offered on national offer day to a non catchment pupil was 249, so all students not offered on national offer day scored less than this score. Information per pupil will need to be obtained from the school.
