  1. Looked after and previously looked after children including those children who appear to have been in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted.
  2. A sibling who will still be attending the school when the child is due to start.
  3. A student whose parent(s) is presently employed at John Spendluffe Technology College or are recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.
