An Admissions Priority Area (APA) is a defined area with boundaries within which children receive priority for a school place ahead of those living outside of it.

For Wimbledon Park, priority is given to some children within the APA and places at Wimbledon Park are allocated as follows:

  1. Looked after children or previously looked after children
  2. Where there are professionally supported medical reasons or exceptional social reasons why a child should attend a particular school
  3. Children of permanent teaching staff
  4. Where a sibling is already in the main school at the time of admission
  5. Children living inside the admissions priority area in order of nearness of home to the school by straight line distance.
  6. Children living outside of the admissions priority area admissions priority area in order of nearness of home to the school by straight line distance
