Dear Parent/Carer/Colleague

 

Norwood Green Junior School is consulting on its 2022 - 2023 Admissions policy.  A link to the proposed policy can be found here or downloaded below.

Please note the published admissions numbers have been adjusted again this year to 90 for pupils coming into Year 3.

We have updated the definition for the Children of Staff criteria.   The previous definition was;

1. The member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time of application or
2. The member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage

The proposed updated definition is;

1. The member of staff has been directly employed by the school for two or more years at the time of application or
2. The member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage

This update has been made to give clarity on eligibility under this criteria.  There are no other changes to the oversubscription criteria.

Norwood Green Junior school has also updated the policy definitions for the following:

• In-Year Admissions
• In- Year Waiting list
• In-year appeals
• Exceptional Medical/social need
• Distance
• Applications from abroad

The consultation period will be from 24th November to 19th January 2021.  Please submit any comments about the proposals to d.blakeburn@ngjs.hounslow.sch.uk before the end of the consultation period.   

 

Any comments received during the consultation process will be considered by Governors at the governing body meeting in February 2021 and the final arrangements determined by the 28th February 2021.
