Hi Sanchari

Thank you for your Freedom of Information Request.

To enable us to process your request can you please clarify if you would like to know the number of successful applicants in and out of the different catchment areas. Or would you like to know the number of successful applicants living less than two miles and more than 2 miles, as this would be a different request because the 2 things are not the same.

Look forward to receiving your clarification.

Kindest Regards

Tracy

Dear Children Families & Wellbeing FOI,

Thanks for your email .

My specific query is how many students got in from a distance within 2 miles versus greater than 2 miles (all within catchment as the catchment areas are quite extensive )
The number of students Out of catchment is a separate point I asked in my query .
I hope this clarifies .

Thanks

Yours sincerely,

Bhattacharya

Dear Sanchari

 

I am writing in response to your Freedom of Information Request (FOI 8497)
dated 11th September 2019.  Please see the Council's response below.

 

Under the Scheme for Co-ordinated Admission Arrangements, The Local
Authority is required to forward a list of all applications received to
the relevant school.  Each school is required to RANK the applications in
accordance with the published oversubscription criteria.  Although some
schools provide the category and rank some only provide a rank.  Where no
category is provided this must be sought from the schools direct.
