Getting a place
Admissions realism: not yet assessed

Admissions realism depends on your home postcode and the school's published allocation data. Enter your postcode on this page to get a more specific assessment, and always verify the latest policy on the school's official admissions page.

This school has a Christian religious character. Admissions may prioritise pupils who meet faith criteria. A Supplementary Information Form (SIF) may be required.

Watch-outs

  • Faith admissions criteria apply (Christian). A Supplementary Information Form may be required. Evidence of faith practice may be needed.
  • Small cohort (29 pupils in the latest results year). Figures may be less reliable and some data may be suppressed.

What to do next

Admissions and catchment

Independent schools run their own admissions outside the council process, so there is no catchment area or last offer distance to compare against. Registration and assessment dates are on the school’s website.
