Advice from Southwark: www.southwark.gov.uk/applying-for-a-primary-school-place
“The school admissions codeol admissions code requires admission authorities to hold their waiting list strictly in order of the priorities of their published oversubscription criteria. Please note, if your child's name is added to a school's waiting list, their position may go up or down the list depending on whether any late applicants have been added and how the oversubscription criteria apply to these children (i.e. if a late applicant meets a higher admissions criterion than others already on the list, they will be given a higher waiting list position). This ensures that if a vacancy arises at a school at any time, the criteria are used to determine which child is offered a place on the waiting list."
