Dear parent/guadian of Josephine Edwards,

Too many applicants applied for place in "North Henry School" and allocations had to be made according to the school admission criterions. "North Henry School" prioritizes applications according to the following criterions "Children subject to a child protection plan", "Children who have a sibling already on roll", "Art aptitude test", "Medical needs", "Children attending a feeder school" and "Children who live closest to the school".

Josephine Edwards ranked at 264 based on Children who live closest to the school. Informations on how places were offered can be found in following table

1	"Children subject to a child protection plan"	2
2	"Children who have a sibling already on roll"	26
3	"Art aptitude test"	52
4	"Medical needs"	7
5	"Children attending a feeder school"	130
6	"Children who live closest to the school"	157

Unfortunately the number of the applicants satisfying the same criterion of a high priority is too many that the admission of children and the cut off were at 220. Any further admission to this year group will prejudice the provision of efficient education and the efficient use of resources.

A place been allocated for Josephine Edwards at "Clarkmouth School" your 3 preference school starting September.
