Dear parent/guadian of Beverley Mitchell,

Too many applicants applied for place in "Port Joshport School" and allocations had to be made according to the school admission criterions. "Port Joshport School" prioritizes applications according to the following criterions "Children in public care", "Children subject to a child protection plan", "Medical needs", "Children attending a feeder school" and "Children who live closest to the school".

Beverley Mitchell ranked at 356 based on Children who live closest to the school. Informations on how places were offered can be found in following table

1	"Children in public care"	15
2	"Children subject to a child protection plan"	5
3	"Medical needs"	15
4	"Children attending a feeder school"	254
5	"Children who live closest to the school"	305

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 290. 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 Beverley Mitchell at "Deanmouth School" your 2 preference school starting September.
