Admissions
New End welcomes applications for admissions to our wonderful school.
​
Looking at our website or at New End's Report Card which can be found HERE are two ways of gaining information about our school. Parents are also welcome to attend one of our regular tours so you can see the school and the children engaged in their learning. If you are relocating, we also can offer a virtual tour of the school so you are able to see around the school before your arrival.
​
The school and Camden follow the admissions criteria set out below:
In the event of oversubscription, places will be offered in the following order to:
a) Looked-after children (children in public care) or a child who was previously looked-after but immediately after being looked-after became subject to an adoption, child arrangement or special guardianship order. This also includes previously looked after children who were in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted.
b) Children with a sibling* (brother or sister) at the same school who will still be on roll when they join and are living at the same address.
* Sibling refers to brother or sister, half brother or sister, adopted brother or sister, step brother or sister, or the child of the parent/carer’s partner where the child for whom the place is being sought is living in the same family unit at the same address as the sibling. A sibling relation does not apply when the older child will leave before the younger one starts. Only pupils in Reception to Year 5 can be considered as siblings for reception coordinated admissions. Nursery pupils cannot be considered as siblings because they are not compulsory school age.
c) Children whom the Council accepts have an exceptional medical or social need for a place at the school. There will have to be a clear link between the child’s exceptional need and the school in question. The local authority will also accept recommendations from the SEN exceptional needs panel for an applicant whose needs support a place at a particular school.
d) Children whose parent is a qualified teacher or teaching assistant working at the relevant school for two years or more at the time of application and / or children of a qualified teacher at the relevant school who has been recruited to fill a vacancy for which there is a skill shortage.
e) Other children, with priority given to those living closest to the school measured ‘as the crow flies’ from the home address to the centre of the school. The address given must be the one in which the child normally resides with those who have parental responsibility or legal guardianship. Distances are measured using a computerised mapping system.
