  • Fourth Priority: Children of Staff. Priority is given to the children of staff where the member of staff has been employed at Kings College for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made. The member of staff must complete the supplementary information form attached.
  • Fifth Priority: Student who live the nearest distance to the College at the close of the admissions application date.
