Admissions summary

How places are prioritised

For September 2027, named EHCPs are admitted first. Lampton Academy then prioritises looked-after children, accepted urgent medical or social need, siblings and eligible children of staff before other applicants ordered by Hounslow's official walking-route measurement.

September 2027 entry

Lampton Academy Year 7 admissions criteria

Priority order

  1. Children whose EHCP names Lampton Academy
  2. Looked-after and previously looked-after children
  3. Children whose urgent medical or social reason is accepted by the trustees' admissions committee
  4. Children meeting Lampton Academy's sibling criterion
  5. Eligible children of Lampton Academy staff
  6. All other applicants, ordered by Hounslow's official walking-route measurement

Sibling priority

The sibling can be a blood, half, step, adoptive or foster brother or sister, must live at the same home address and must still attend Lampton Academy when the applicant starts in September 2027. Cousins do not qualify.

Children of staff

Priority applies to a child of any member of staff, regardless of role, who has worked at Lampton Academy for at least two years when the application is made.

How distance is measured

Hounslow measures the walking route from the property's LLPG seed point to the nearest pupil gate using RouteFinder and the Ordnance Survey MasterMap Highways Network. SchoolRange cannot reproduce that official route; postcode-centre straight-line distance is indicative only.

Evidence to prepare

  • Proof of the permanent home address used for the application
  • Sibling details on the application form if claiming sibling priority
  • Relevant medical certificates or other supporting evidence if requesting urgent medical or social priority
  • Employment evidence if claiming children-of-staff priority

Other published rules

  • Applicants tied within a criterion are ordered by Hounslow's official walking distance; exact official-distance ties are decided by independently witnessed lots.
  • The policy's statutory section still says ‘Statements of Special Educational Needs’; SchoolRange applies the current EHCP naming duty from the School Admissions Code.

Application deadline

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

What recent offers show

Hounslow published official walking-route cutoffs of 0.971 miles for 2024, 1.175 miles for 2025 and 1.081 miles for 2026. SchoolRange shows these as context but does not compare them directly with its postcode-centre straight-line estimate.
