The ethos of the school is that it is a community where faith is nurtured, excellence in learning is achieved and pupils are inspired to serve others, following the example of Jesus. We ask that all parents applying for a place respect this ethos and its importance to the school community. This does not affect the rights of parents who are not of the Catholic faith to apply for and be considered for a place.
Our Local Academy Committee (LAC) is responsible for administering the policy relating to the admission of pupils to the school. It is guided in that responsibility by the requirements of the law, the advice of the Diocesan Trustee, and its duty to the school and the Catholic community.
