Your Home Address
In order to prioritise pupils correctly Havering must verify that distances are being measured from a child’s habitual residence and, therefore, that an application is being made from a child’s normal home address. A child’s home address is defined as being the child’s normal place of residence, and excludes any business, relative’s or child-minder’s address. Where formal custody of a child is equally shared between parents/carers, then it is up to them to agree which address to use for the purpose of making a school place
- application. If custody is not equally shared, the address of the parent with the
majority of custody will be used. It is not permissible to use an address of convenience. This is considered to be
- ne which is used by a parent in order to gain a school place where the address is
not the child’s normal, permanent home address. This is considered to be where the child resides for the majority of the school week and where the child’s primary guardian, the person with parental responsibility, normally permanently resides.
