Current Criteria for Admission arrangements

 

Specialist Places:

Up to 21 places will be allocated on the basis of an aptitude for Modern Foreign Languages. Places will be offered after written and oral assessment of aptitude.

Applicants will need to complete a supplementary application form if they wish to be considered for a specialist place. Those not offered a specialist place will automatically be considered for a place under the general admissions criteria.

 

General Places:

189 places (or more in the event of fewer than 21 specialist places being allocated), will be allocated as follows:

In order to admit students across the whole ability range, all applicants will be placed in ability groups A – E (where A = top 20%, B = next 20% and so on) according to their scores in the Wandsworth year 6 Test. Where applications for admission exceed the number of places available, the following admission a criteria will then be applied to each of these ability group and places offered and waiting lists drawn up accordingly.

               I.      Where the child has a sibling currently attending the school. (Parents with siblings at Elliott must submit an application for a place by the closing date given on the application form)

 

             II.      Children with known special medical or social needs, including Looked After Children, which, in the opinion of the Governing Body, would be suitably provided for in the school.

 

            III.      Proximity of the child’s home to the school measured  by the shortest walking route with street lighting as measured by the Council’s Geographical Information System, with those living nearest being given the highest priority.
