Who gets priority
Two Mile Ash School is its own admission authority: the school (or its trust) sets its admissions policy and oversubscription criteria, and publishes them on its website. You still apply through Milton Keynes.
In England, a child whose education, health and care plan names the school is admitted first. Then, when there are more applicants than places, looked-after and previously looked-after children come first, followed by the school's own criteria, which usually include siblings and distance from home.
Joining during the school year
Two Mile Ash School has 649 pupils for 596 places. It is at or above capacity, so places outside the normal entry year are rare; ask to join the waiting list. Moving mid-year? Apply through Milton Keynes's in-year admissions process or, for some schools, directly to the school.
