We can supply this guide in large print, Braille or on tape. Please call 01629 537479. If you need help filling in the application form or understanding the process, please contact a choice adviser. See page 8. Page 1 Apply by phone. Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 A glossary of terms used in this guide The information contained in this guide relates to the admission of children to reception classes for the 2008/9 academic year. It also applies to children who will transfer from infant school to junior school in September 2008. Enhanced-resource schools are mainstream schools with additional resources, such as extra staff, for certain children with Statements of Special Educational Needs. Pupils are not generally taught separately and are included in the mainstream classes. Nursery schools generally cater for children between the ages of three and four. Special schools are attended by children with Statements of Special Educational Needs. Special schools provide for pupils whose disability requires a more comprehensive approach than a mainstream school or an enhancedresource school can provide. Some experience of mainstream school may be possible. The council handles admissions for all special schools. Within the primary phase of education, there are three types of school: Infant schools generally cater for pupils aged between five and seven. However, if the school has a nursery unit, it will cater for pupils aged between three and seven. Junior schools cater for pupils aged between seven and 11. Primary schools generally cater for pupils aged between five and 11. However, if the school has a nursery unit, it will cater for pupils aged between three and 11. Community and voluntary controlled schools are funded by Derbyshire County Council with the headteacher and governing body responsible for running the school. The admissions policy is determined and administered by the county council. Voluntary aided schools are jointly funded by Derbyshire County Council and a voluntary organisation, usually a church diocesan board. The headteacher and governing body run the school. The admissions policy is determined and administered by the governing body. Catholic schools are voluntary aided schools. Foundation schools are funded by Derbyshire County Council but responsibility for running the school rests with the headteacher and governing body. The admissions policy is determined and administered by the governing body. All of the above schools are called mainstream schools. Page 2 The normal area is a defined geographical area, made up of the area around the school, which the school serves. You can enter your postcode into an interactive tool on our website, www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions to find out what your normal area school is. You can also find out from the Admissions and Appeals Team by emailing admissions@derbyshire.gov.uk or ringing the Admissions and Appeals Team switchboard on 01629 537479 or one of its direct line numbers given on page four. The Eckington area is an exception to the rule. Please contact the Admissions and Appeals Team to find out more. If you consider your child Catholic, it means he or she is also resident in the normal area of a Catholic school. If you are unsure about your child’s status regarding the Catholic school serving your area, contact the diocese for advice. The number is on page four. We use the word parent throughout the guide. It means anyone who has a parental responsibility in accordance with the terms of the Children Act 1989. A few children with special educational needs require a detailed assessment by us. This is called a statutory assessment of special educational needs. The child’s requirements are set out in a document called a Statement of Special Educational Needs. The published admission number is the set number of places available at a school. INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Apply online.

See www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions How does it work? Please read all the information contained in the guide before making an application. The council is not presently able to write to parents reminding them of when their child should start school. The form included in your pack is the only application form you should complete to apply for a school place. You fill in one application form only, no matter how many schools you want to apply for. There is no need to fill out a separate form for each school. Only make one application online, by phone or paper – not one of each. Derbyshire County Council acts as a clearing house for admitting all pupils to Derbyshire primary, infant and junior schools. If you are a parent wanting a place for your child in a Derbyshire primary, infant or junior school the information contained in this guide explains how you can apply for a primary school place for your child. Even if you have already approached a school or feel you have put your child’s name down at a school – that is not a formal application. A formal application can only be made by following the process explained in this guide. You can apply online. It’s quick and it’s free. See www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions Or you can apply by phone. Ring Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058. The call centre is open between 8am and 8pm, Monday to Friday, and Saturdays 9.30am to 4pm. Calls are charged at local rate wherever you live in Derbyshire. The Admissions and Appeals Team, Children and Younger Adults, Derbyshire County Council, County Hall, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 3AG Make sure your application is in by 3.30pm on Friday 14 December 2007. Application forms for a place in junior school will be distributed via Derbyshire infant schools in the week beginning 29 October 2007. The closing date for parents to return forms is 3.30pm on 14 December 2007. Applications are needed from all parents, including those who want their child to attend their normal area school. Supplementary Forms Some voluntary aided and foundation schools may want you to fill in other paperwork in addition to an application you make to us. This is called a supplementary form. Look at the school’s prospectus to see if this is the case. This is so that they can apply their own admission criteria. For example, they might want proof of your address or proof that your child has been baptised. Any additional paperwork of that type should be returned to the school by the closing date. This supplementary paperwork is not instead of our application form. You will still need to make an application to us. LIST OF SCHOOLS You may prefer to fill in the paper application form that came with this guide. You can fill in your preferences and hand the form in to a Derbyshire primary school. Or post it to: Transfer from infant to junior school When children are due to leave infant school and need to move to a different school for their junior education, parents must make an application to the council in the same way as described for a reception place. The application form for infant to junior transfer has been pre-printed with some of your child’s details and, if applicable, your normal area school. A place in a particular infant school does not guarantee a place at the associated junior school. Similarly, a place at a particular junior or primary school does not guarantee a place at a particular secondary school except in the Eckington area (see pages 11 to 12). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION We invite you to state preferences for one, two or three schools and give your reasons. We recognise that in some parts of the county multiple choices may not be appropriate.

If you miss the deadline of 3.30pm on Friday 14 December we will not be able to consider your application until the ones that we received on time have been dealt with. • Don’t name the same school more than once as a preference – this will not increase your chances of a place. • We will withdraw a school place where false information has been used to secure an offer. • Think about listing your normal area school. You may want to consider including the normal area school as one of your preferences, though it does not have to be your first preference. If you do not include the normal area school as one of your preferences, it may fill up with pupils who have said they would prefer to go to that school. This could mean the only school with available places may be further away and could mean you have to pay for transport to a distant school. For pupils moving from infant to junior education the normal area school is given on the paper application form. • Find out which is your normal area school. You can enter your postcode into an interactive tool on our website www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions to find out the name of your normal area school. • If you do not make an application you cannot assume your child will get an automatic place at your normal area school. We will first offer places to those who have expressed a preference. If you do not make an application we will only be able to give your child a place at your normal area school – if places are still available. If your normal area school is full we will give your child a place in the nearest school which has room. This could mean you paying transport costs to a distant school. • Consider how your child will get to school when making your preferences. You are responsible for getting your child to school. If your child gets a place at a distant school, this could mean that you pay transport costs. Details of the transport policy are on page 14. Read these carefully before making your preferences. • Only make one application online, by phone or on paper. • Late applications received after the closing date will be included only if the reason for the delay is considered exceptional and appropriate evidence has been provided. Other late applications will not be considered until after applications received by the closing date have been dealt with. Page 10 INTRODUCTION Apply online. See www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions Who decides the rules? In community schools and voluntary controlled schools, it is Derbyshire County Council that decides the rules for getting places. What are the rules for getting a school place? (the rules are known as ‘admissions criteria’) Please note, attendance at a particular nursery gives no priority for a place at an infant or primary school. Similarly, attendance at a particular infant school gives no priority for admission to a particular junior or primary school, except in the Eckington area (see below). In law there is no automatic right to a place in any particular school. Where we cannot offer a Derbyshire child a place at any of the chosen schools, he or she will be allocated a place at the normal area school – if places are still available – or the next nearest school with places available. You should bear in mind that school admissions are considered on an annual basis – so it is not possible to confirm that a place is available at a school any earlier than during the year before your child will join. Each year primary schools have to admit eligible pupils on request up to their published admission number (as shown in the list at the back of the guide) which takes account of the amount of accommodation available. Community and voluntary controlled schools Individual pupils who have a Statement of Special Educational Needs which can best be met in the school will be given priority where so determined by the county council in consultation with the governing body. In deciding on admissions to all community and voluntary controlled schools in Derbyshire, the following order of priority will be adopted. The Eckington area, however, has different rules. These are set out under the heading ‘Eckington Area’ below. 1. ‘Looked after’ children. 2. Children living in the normal area served by the school at the time of application and admission (including those living in another council’s area). For a definition of living in the normal area see note* on page 12. 3. Children not living in the normal area served by the school but who have brothers or sisters attending the school at the time of their admission. See note ** on page 12. LIST OF SCHOOLS If you are a parent seeking a place for your child at a Derbyshire school we will offer you one place at the highest-priority school for which your child is eligible. Admissions criteria ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Under the 1996 Education Act, you have a legal right to express a preference for which school you want your child to attend. The county council and school governors have a general duty to meet this preference – as long as it does not “prejudice the provision of efficient education or the efficient use of resources” or the council or governors are required to take extra measures under the Key Stage 1 class size legislation. As the published admission number covers all admissions throughout the school year, it may be that not all the places may be allocated for admission in September. This may be because the school has more than one date during the year when it takes new pupils. The governors must comply with the legal requirement that no infant classes size may exceed 30 pupils. APPLYING FOR A PLACE APPLYING FOR A PLACE In voluntary aided Church of England, Catholic and Methodist schools, as well as Foundation schools the governors decide admission rules for their school. STARTING SCHOOL The rules for getting a place at a Derbyshire school 4. In the case of voluntary controlled church schools, children whose parents request a place on religious grounds. *** 5. Other children whose parents have requested a place. Where, in the case of 3, 4, or 5 above, choices have to be made between children satisfying the same criteria, those children living nearest to the school (measured by the nearest available route) will be given preference. See note **** on page 12. Eckington Area Following a legal ruling some years ago different arrangements operate in the Eckington area. The admissions criteria for schools in the Eckington area are as follows: Page 11 Apply by phone. Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 Eckington Birk Hill Infant and Killamarsh Infant, Marsh Lane Primary, Ridgeway Primary and Renishaw Primary Schools. (i) Looked-after children. (ii) Children whose parents have requested a place at the school who have older brothers or sisters** already in attendance. (iii) Other children whose parents have requested a place. If there is insufficient room to admit all applicants, those children living nearest to the school – measured by the nearest available route – would have priority. Eckington Junior and Killamarsh Junior Schools (i) Looked-after children. (ii) Pupils attending these schools' main contributory infant schools, that is Birk Hill Infant and Killamarsh Infant schools respectively. (iii) Other children who have older brothers or sisters** already attending Eckington Junior or Killamarsh Junior schools at the time of admission. (iv) Other children whose parents have requested a place. If choices have to be made between children in categories (iii) and (iv) above, children who live nearest to the school – measured by the nearest available route – should be given preference. Eckington School (Secondary) (i) Looked-after children. (ii) Pupils attending the school's main contributory primary schools – that is Eckington Junior, Camm's Endowed Primary, Renishaw Primary, Ridgeway Primary, Marsh Lane Primary, Killamarsh Junior, Killamarsh St Giles CE Primary and Immaculate Conception Catholic Primary (those pupils not proceeding to St Mary's Catholic High School in Chesterfield). (iii) Other children who have older brothers or sisters** already attending Eckington School at the time of admission. Page 12 (iv) Other children whose parents have requested a place. If choices have to be made between children in categories (iii) and (iv) above, children who live nearest to the school – measured by the nearest available route – should be given preference. note* “Living in the normal area”, in (2) above is defined as the child having full-time residence in a property which is the child's only or main residence. Documentary evidence including proof of actual permanent residency at the property concerned may be required. Please note that where the county council has reasonable grounds for believing the home address is not the child's only or main residence it reserves the right to carry out investigations which may include visits to the property. The county council reserves the right to withdraw any offer of a school place which has been obtained as a result of misleading or fraudulent information. note** The term brother or sister includes: (a) a half-brother and/or a half-sister (b) a legally adopted child being regarded as a brother or sister (c) a step-brother and/or step-sister residing in the same family unit note*** Parents seeking a place at a voluntary controlled school on religious grounds should obtain a letter of support from a Minister, Priest or Pastor or Religious leader if the child is a member of another Christian Church or World Faith, who knows the family and can confirm regular attendance at public worship. [Regular worship is defined as attendance at public worship at least once a month.] This must be included with the application. Where appropriate baptismal certificates should also be supplied. Exceptional circumstances will be considered if explained in writing by the relevant religious leader. note**** The county council has a Geographic Information System (GIS) to measure the nearest available route. It is measured by a standard walking distance calculated to within two metres. This measurement is taken from the postal address file, normally the house front door. INTRODUCTION Apply online. See www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions Please note A place cannot be guaranteed for any child whose parents apply after the closing date. This includes a child who moves into a school's normal area after that date. Withdrawing an offer For admission procedures to be fair it is important that all the information you provide is accurate. If we find that any information provided by parents is misleading or fraudulent, the county council reserves the right to withdraw any offer of a school place. Do schools have waiting lists? You can get more information and make your appeal online at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions. Details of the appeals procedure for all Derbyshire primary schools can be obtained by contacting Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058. The decision reached by the independent panel will be binding on the council and the parents. A further application in respect of the same school will not be entertained in the same academic year unless significant and material changes in circumstances arise. Infant (Key Stage 1 and Foundation) Appeals By law, subject to certain limited exceptions, no infant class may contain more than 30 pupils. Infant classes are those in which the majority of pupils will reach the age of five, six or seven during the school year. Admissions authorities can refuse to admit a child if to do so would require the school to take action such as employ an extra teacher or build an extra classroom to keep infant classes at 30 or less. In such circumstances should parents choose to exercise their right to appeal, the Appeals Panel is only allowed to look at the following matters. LIST OF SCHOOLS Derbyshire County Council maintains waiting lists for all oversubscribed Derbyshire schools. Waiting lists will be set up on 28 March 2008 and maintained until 30 September 2008. Your child’s name would automatically be placed on a list if they had not been offered a place and you had given that school a higher priority than the school at which your child has been offered a place. A vacancy arises only when the number of offers to a particular school falls below the published admission number. Priority on the waiting list is determined according to the published admission criteria. The date of application does not affect waiting list order. When parents are unable to obtain a place for their child at the school they want, they can appeal against the decision to an appeal panel independent of the council and the school. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Voluntary aided and foundation schools The criteria for admissions to aided and foundation schools are decided by each school’s governing body and are listed briefly on pages 53 to 77 of this guide. Full details can be obtained directly from the school. Appeals APPLYING FOR A PLACE APPLYING FOR A PLACE In situations where late applications are received and the school’s admission number has been reached, but subsequently a place becomes available – if choices need to be made between normal area applications, those children living nearest to the school (measured by the nearest available route) will be given preference. STARTING SCHOOL For schools, the grid reference is again taken from the postal address file and will be the centre of the school. Firstly, whether the admissions authority applied its own rules which were published in the admission arrangements. If the admissions authority contravened its own rules, either deliberately or by mistake, then the parents’ appeal can succeed, but only if their child would have gained admission had the rules been applied properly. Secondly, whether the admissions authority acted unreasonably. The law defines “unreasonable” very carefully in these cases. For the decision to be “unreasonable” it must be completely illogical, or not based on the facts of the case. Page 13 Apply by phone. Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 How will my child get to school? Transport to the normal area school We provide assistance with transport for full time infant, junior and primary school pupils who do not live within statutory walking distance of their normal area school. This distance is two miles for children under eight and three miles for children over eight. It is measured by the shortest available route. Bus passes or refunds are issued where appropriate and special contract transport is arranged if public transport is not available. There may be exceptions to the transport rules if we agree that the route to the normal area school is dangerous for a child, accompanied if necessary, to undertake on foot. Spare places on a contract bus may be provided on a concessionary basis for children who are not normally entitled to free transport, however a fare will be charged. Transport to faith schools Parents choosing a voluntary aided faith school on religious grounds may be eligible to receive assistance with transport if the chosen school is the normal area voluntary school (in most cases the nearest voluntary school) and the school is outside the walking distance as explained above. In addition, in the case of Catholic schools, only Roman Catholic baptised children are eligible to receive assistance with travel. In all such requests baptismal certificates are required as necessary evidence. Transport to other schools Parents who send their children to a school which is not their normal area school will not normally receive assistance with transport (children living outside the county attending Derbyshire schools should apply to their home council). However, assistance with transport will be provided when a child attends a school, other than the normal area school, which is Page 14 beyond the two/three-mile limit but is closer to the child’s home than the normal area school. For more information please refer to our transport policy available on www.derbyshire.gov.uk. If you are in receipt of benefit From September 2007, children of primary age who are entitled to free school meals or whose families get the maximum level of working tax credit are entitled to free transport to the nearest suitable school where the distance from home is more than two miles. This distance is measured along the nearest available route. Each year, we check whether parents are still eligible for transport assistance. If parents are no longer eligible, for example because they no longer receive relevant benefits, parents may have to meet their child’s transport costs. Transport for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities Transport will be provided for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities who attend their nearest school, where the journey exceeds the statutory walking distances as outlined above or in other cases in accordance with the council’s special educational needs transport policy. Provision of transport will not generally be made if the preferred school is further away from the child’s home than another school considered appropriate by the council. For more information please refer to our special educational needs transport policy available on www.derbyshire.gov.uk Please contact the Special Needs Section at County Hall, Matlock, DE4 3AG (Tel: 01629 580000 extension 6547 or 6531), if you have any queries.

See pages 53 to 77 for voluntary aided and foundation schools. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In considering applications for admission outside the normal admission time Derbyshire schools will prioritise the needs of applicants who are ‘looked after’ children who have moved into their area as a result of changes in care arrangements. The information contained in this guide on transport, benefits, uniform, special educational needs and appeals still applies. Getting a school place outside Derbyshire at other than normal transfer time. LIST OF SCHOOLS Under the 1996 Education Act, you have the right to ask for your child to go to a school run by another council. If you want to send your child to a school outside Derbyshire you should apply to the authority that is responsible for admissions at that school. Neighbouring councils are listed on page 77. Page 17 Apply by phone. Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 Early years education All children have the right to a free early years education place in the term following their third birthday, subject to the availability of places. Free places are available for up to 15 hours per week over a minimum of three days and may be taken with one or two early years providers. Enquiries about early years settings should be made to the Children’s Information Service, Children and Younger Adults Department, Derbyshire County Council, County Hall, Matlock, DE4 3AG. You can call them on 01629 585585 or visit www.childcarelink.gov.uk. Parents may choose their free early years provision from a range of council-run, private, voluntary or independent educational settings or a combination of these. Some parts of Derbyshire provide council-run nursery schools or classes. Children may be considered for a place on a part-time basis of up to five sessions per week, but usually they cannot join until the start of the term following their third birthday. Parents should contact the head teacher of the relevant school or setting which they wish their child to attend, remembering that there is often a waiting list. If too many places are requested in council-run schools or nurseries, governors will use the following order of priorities: 1) Children who are on the child protection “at risk” register. 2) Children who are – or are likely to be – the subject of a statement of special educational needs. 3) Children whose families are suffering severe social and psychological stress which could significantly affect the child’s development. 4) Other children from the normal area of the school. 5) Other children from the wider area served by the school. In the case of 4) and 5) above, priority will be given to those children who have had their fourth birthday. Please note: Parents have no automatic right to a nursery place for their child in their normal area school. Parents should not be allocated places in more than one council-run school for their child. The rules on admissions and appeals, as explained on pages 11 to 13, do not apply to nursery schools and classes. Page 18 Transferring from early years to primary education Children who have received early years provision or attended a council run nursery school or class will normally go into full-time infant education in September or January in the school year in which they become five years old, depending upon when their birthday falls as outlined below. Primary education By law, you must arrange for your child to start school full-time at the beginning of the term* (in this context, a term is as defined in legislation, see below) after his or her fifth birthday – unless you make arrangements to educate your child otherwise than at school. However, Derbyshire County Council has determined that all Derbyshire community and voluntary controlled schools admit children full-time as follows: • A child whose fifth birthday falls on or between 1 September and 30 April will start school in September. • A child whose fifth birthday falls on or between 1 May and 31 August will start school in January. A small number of schools have the council’s approval to admit children at the beginning of each term*. Foundation and voluntary aided schools decide their own admission arrangements. On the offer of a place you have the right to defer admission until your child reaches statutory school age, provided the place is taken up within the same academic year. As all children now receive at least two terms* of fulltime provision in a reception class or nursery, part-time admission is no longer thought necessary. INTRODUCTION Apply online. See www.derbyshire.gov.uk/admissions A two-week phasing-in period at the beginning of fulltime education is acceptable. Following a major investment by the government, Derbyshire County Council, with its partners, is on target in developing a number of children’s centres which will be expected to provide a range of services to children under five and their families. This will include the integration of early years education with full day care in some areas as well as a range of other services such as family support, health services and links to Jobcentre Plus, local training and adult education providers. There will be 42 across the county by 2008. APPLYING FOR A PLACE *In this context “term” relates to one third of the academic year i.e. Autumn, Spring and Summer. Parents should note that Derbyshire County Council operates a six term year. Full details of which are given on page 21, for example, Derbyshire’s Autumn Term 1 and 2 are equivalent to one term as defined in legislation. STARTING SCHOOL Children’s centres ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ADDITIONAL INFORMATION LIST OF SCHOOLS Page 19 Apply by phone. Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 Children with special educational needs The form included in this pack should not be used to apply for school places for children with a Statement of Special Educational Needs. Parents should contact the Special Needs Section of Derbyshire County Council on 01629 580000 extension 6547 or 6531. It is Derbyshire’s policy to meet children’s needs, wherever possible, in mainstream schools including those schools with enhanced-resource status. Places at enhanced-resource and special schools are given to certain pupils with Statements of Special Educational Needs. Most children with statements will be educated in mainstream schools. The term ‘special educational needs’ is used when children have a learning difficulty or disability, which makes it harder for them to learn than most children of the same age. A child with special educational needs may need extra help or different help from other pupils of the same age. Only a few children with special educational needs require a detailed assessment by us. This is called a statutory assessment of special educational needs. A Statement of Special Educational Needs describes your child's needs and how they should be met. It also gives you the opportunity to express a preference for which maintained school your child should attend. For more information contact: Special Needs Section Children and Younger Adults Department Derbyshire County Council County Hall Matlock Derbyshire DE4 3AG Tel: 01629 580000 ext 6547 or 6531 Email: sen.admin@derbyshire.gov.uk Early transfer We believe it is better for children to stay within their peer group instead of being accelerated through the education system, which may lead to difficulties later. In a very small number of cases a child may be admitted in the year before they would normally transfer. Such a decision will be based on information from the child's present school indicating: • Exceptional ability and progress on National Curriculum and other measures of school attainment. • Exceptional social, language, physical and emotional maturity for their age, so that they will be able to cope with an early transfer. Where an early transfer is being considered, schools can request advice, which may include individual assessment of the child by the Educational Psychology Service. Parents should consider carefully the full impact of early transfer for their child and consult the head teacher. Ultimately, the decision rests with the head teacher who will reach a decision based on advice sought and what is considered to be in the best interests of the child. School charging policy Charges may not be made for any cost associated with anything your child does during the school day. Schools may ask for voluntary contributions for school visits. Each governing body is required to tell parents details of the school’s charging and remissions policy. Will my child have to wear uniform? Uniform is decided by each school’s board of governors. Other financial assistance The county council has no general scheme of assistance to provide school clothing, clothing grants or any other financial help to parents. In exceptional circumstances, where a child is prevented from attending school, the council’s education welfare service can give advice on what financial help might be available.
