How do I apply for a place at St George's Catholic School?
Apply through the council where you live by 31 October in your child's Year 6, for a place starting the following September. You apply to your home council even if St George's Catholic School is in another council's area, and can usually list between 3 and 6 schools in order of preference. Offers are sent on 1 March, or the next working day. As a Roman Catholic school it may also ask for a supplementary form, and its admissions policy says whether it does.
Does living near St George's Catholic School guarantee a place?
No. Distance only counts when St George's Catholic School 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. As a Roman Catholic school, it can give priority to children on grounds of faith. How far away the last place went changes every year, depending on who applies.
How many pupils are at St George's Catholic School?
