Khalsa Primary School
Children with brothers or sisters in Khalsa, ‘ siblings. ’
Parents who are seeking a school place for a child because
he/she has a brother or sister who is a pupil at Khalsa Primary
School must claim priority by filling in the correct details as
requested on the Local Authority Common Application Form
(CAF) and the school’s Supplementary Information Form (SIF).
It is the responsibility of the parent to bring the details of
the sibling relationship to the attention of the Admissions
Panel. If the sibling relationship is not claimed at the time of
application it will seriously affect the possibility of your child
gaining a place at the school.
Tie break
Where only one place is available and two or more addresses
produce identical distance measurements, the name of the
applicant will be randomly selected by the Local Authority’s
admissions system to allocate a place.
Multiple births
Where applications are received in respect of twins, triplets
or children of other multiple births and the school is able to
offer one child a place in accordance with the Admissions
criteria, the school will offer a place to the other child
(children) admitting above the published admission number
where necessary.

Waiting lists
A waiting list will be maintained by the Governing Body in the
order of the over subscription criteria and not in the order in
which applications are received. When a place becomes available
the school will advise the Local Authority of the child who is top
of the list so that the home Local Authority can inform the parent
that an offer can be made on behalf of the Governing Body. The
awarding of the place will depend on whether the vacant place
is Sikh or Other Faith, and will be awarded to the child in the
relevant age group who most closely matches Criteria 2 or 3 as
assessed by the Supplementary Information Form (SIF).
Although we have your child’s name on the waiting list, the
position is subject to fairly frequent changes because waiting
list positions must be determined in line with the Admissions
Criteria as and when a vacancy is available. Every time we have a
vacancy we will review all names on the waiting list. If a vacancy
occurs the child with the highest ranking will gain the vacant
place in that year group
