Admission criteria at Clapham Manor Primary School

If more children apply than there are places, the 2026 rules offer places in this order.

1. Looked-after and previously looked-after children (including children adopted from state care outside England).
2. Children with a brother or sister at the school who will still be there when they start (siblings in the nursery class or Year 6 don't count).
3. Children with a professionally supported exceptional medical or social need (or a parent's significant need) for this particular school, decided by Lambeth's MEDSOC panel.
4. Children of teachers or teaching assistants employed at the school for at least 0.6 of full time and for at least 3 years (at most one child per form of entry).
5. Other children, by straight-line distance from the home (a point from the Local Land and Property Gazetteer) to a central point in the school's grounds, measured by Lambeth Council's mapping software. Exactly equal distances are settled by random allocation.
