• Children with statements for special educational needs (SEN) and those with exceptional/strong SEN reasons for attending a particular school/setting.
• Exceptional/strong medical, social, welfare reasons (associated with the child and/or the family) for attending a particular school/setting.

• Children who will have a sibling in attendance at the time of their admission.
