Waiting lists will be maintained by the school throughout the school year. A child's position on the waiting list does not depend on the time they have been on the list but will be determined by how they meet the criteria listed below.
- Children in Local Authority Care
- Siblings of children currently studying at Preston Manor Lower or Upper School
- Children with specific social/medical requirements
- Children of Staff at Preston Manor Lower and Upper School
- The distance you live from the school
This means that a child's position on the list can go down as well as up, depending on the child's circumstances and those of other applicants. The waiting list will be closed each year.
