Dudley Admissions Service is the main point of contact for all matters concerning school admissions. Admissions are allocated according to the following criteria: a) First priority will be given to relevant 'looked after children'; b) Second priority shall be given to children with a 'serious and ongoing medical condition' where the preferred school is the most appropriate to meet the condition; c) Third priority for admission shall be given to children who have a brother/sister, half brother/sister (where the children share one common parent), or step-brother/step-sister, living at the same address and who will still be attending the preferred school in the academic year 2020-21; d) Any places that remain available once the above applicants have been admitted will be filled according to those children who live closest to the school, determined by a straight line measurement from the home address to the main entrance of the school. All applications are processed by your home LA and the decision is made by the Admissions Service regarding places. Birmingham, Dudley, Sandwell, Staffordshire, Walsall, Wolverhampton and Worcestershire (LAs) have agreed to co-ordinate applications for their schools. You are encouraged to apply online. The Admissions Service informs parents by letter/email of the school to which their child has been allocated a place.
