Oasis Academy Hadley is a non-selective Academy open to students of all religious faiths and those of no faith.
Where the number of applications for admission is greater than the published admission number, applications will be considered against the criteria set out below. After the admission of students with statements of Special Educational Needs where Oasis Academy Hadley is named on the statement, the criteria will be applied in the order in which they are set out below:
Children in public care.
Children for whom a particular school is appropriate on genuine social or medical grounds. Such applications will be decided by the Academy Council or nominated panel. (Such applications will only be considered under this criterion if they are supported by an attached written statement from a doctor or social worker. This must demonstrate that there is a very specific connection between the child’s medical or social need and the school requested).
Admission of students whose siblings currently attend the Academy and who will continue to do so on the date of admission. The term “sibling” means a full, half, adopted or fostered brother or sister, or other child living permanently within the same household. The Academy reserves the right to ask for proof of relationship.
Admission of students on the basis of proximity to the Academy using straight line measurement from the main entrance of the Academy to the main entrance of the child’s home.
Places are allocated on a geographical basis to children who live nearest to the Academy. The distance used to determine how close the child lives to the Academy will be the direct line measurement from the front door of the permanent home address to the main entrance to the Academy site. The child’s permanent home address is where he or she normally lives and sleeps and goes to school from. Proof of residence – such as a council tax bill or utility bill – can be requested at any time throughout the admissions process. If false or misleading information is used to gain entry to the Academy, the offer of a place may be withdrawn.
If there are more applicants than there are places remaining within a particular category and where there is no difference in distance from home to school for two or more children, random allocation, carried out by a person or persons unconnected with the Academy, will be used to allocate the final available place(s) and to establish priority on the waiting list.
The Academy will publish specific criteria in relation to minimum academic entrance requirements for admission to the post-16 provision. These criteria are the same for internal and external transfers.
Where the number of external applications exceeds the number of post-16 places available and after the admission of students with statements of Special Educational Needs where the Academy is named on the statement, the criteria will be applied in the order in which they are set out below:

(Such applications will only be considered under this criterion if they are supported by an attached written statement from a doctor or social worker.

Please note:
There will be a right of appeal to an Independent Appeals Panel for internal students refused transfer and external applicants refused admission.

Aye mate! And welcome to limbo! Problem: I have no idea what page you're trying to work on. You need to define a body ID in the template, then turn on the necessary rows and columns in layout.css. Arrrrgh!
