No. Distance only counts when Oakfield Academy has more applicants than places. Then its admission criteria, set by its academy trust, decide who is offered a place first. Children in care or adopted from care come first by law. Most schools put brothers and sisters of current pupils next, then distance or a catchment area. How far away the last place went changes every year, depending on who applies.
Oakfield Academy had 529 pupils aged 9 to 13 at the latest school census. Its official capacity is 696. It is a mixed school.
