Admission criteria at Iqra Primary School

If more children apply than there are places, the 2026 rules offer places in this order. In 2026, the last places went to children in group 4.

1. Looked-after and previously looked-after children (including children adopted from state care outside England).
2. Children with a brother or sister attending the school when they start.
3. Children with a professionally supported medical or social need that the school is uniquely able to meet.
4. Children whose address is closest to the school, by the safest walking distance (Multi-map). The same order fills 26 faith places for children of Muslim families and 4 open places for non-Muslim families. We can't measure walking routes, so a year whose places ran out by walking distance isn't judged.

Where a year’s rules are missing from our data, we use the nearest year’s.
