Admission criteria at Sellincourt Primary School

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

  1. Looked-after children and children who were previously looked after (adopted or under a child arrangements or special guardianship order).
  2. Children with a professionally supported exceptional medical or social need for this particular school.
  3. Children with a brother or sister at the school in Years R-6 at the time of admission (full, step or half siblings at the same address, or fostered children).
  4. Children of staff employed directly at the school for at least two years (or recruited to a skill-shortage post), at least 0.6 FTE; at most one place per form of entry.
  5. Children living inside the school's priority area (east side of Tooting High Street, south and west side of Mitcham Road, Longley Road), nearest first.
  6. Other children living outside the priority area, by straight-line distance from home to the centre of the school site.

Our data doesn’t include separate rules for every year, so where a year’s rules are missing we use the nearest year’s.

Read the official rules: Wandsworth Council: admissions policy 2027-28 for Furzedown, Penwortham and Sellincourt Primary Schools. The school’s own published arrangements always take priority over our summary.
