Ada Lovelace Church of England High School Year 7 admissions criteria

Priority order

  1. Children whose EHCP names the school
  2. Looked-after and previously looked-after children
  3. Eligible children of Ada Lovelace staff
  4. 20 specialist music places ranked by the school's aptitude assessment
  5. Children meeting the published sibling criterion
  6. All other applicants, ordered by straight-line distance

Sibling priority

The sibling must already be on roll and remain on roll when the applicant is admitted; both children must live in the same family unit at the same address.

Children of staff

The staff member must have worked at the school for at least two years when the application is made, or have been recruited to a post with a demonstrable skills shortage.

How distance is measured

Straight line from the home's official address point to the school's Park View Road nodal point. Postcode-centroid screening is only approximate.

Evidence to prepare

  • Proof of home address
  • Sibling details if claiming sibling priority
  • Employment evidence if claiming staff priority
  • A separate music application by 4pm on 2 October 2026 if applying for a music place

Application deadline

Apply through the council where your child lives, even if the school is in another borough.
