Admission Criteria

Where there are more applications for places than the number of places available, places will be offered according to the following order of priority.

1.    Looked after children and previously looked after children.

2.    Catholic children who are resident in the parish of St Cecilia.

3.    Other Catholic children. 

4.    Catechumens in the Catholic Church and members of an Eastern Christian Church not in full communion with Rome 

5.    Children of other Christian Ecclesial Communities whose membership is evidenced by a minister of religion. 

6.    Children of other faiths whose membership is evidenced by a religious leader. 

7.    Any other children.

Within each of the categories listed above, the following provisions will be applied in the following order.

(i)   Where evidence is provided at the time of application of an exceptional social, medical or pastoral need of the child which can most appropriately be met at this school, the application will be placed at the top of the category in which the application is made.

(ii) The attendance of a brother or sister at the school at the time of enrolment will increase the priority of an application within each category so that the application will be placed at the top of the category in which the application is made after children in (i) above.

 

Secondary Transfer

Our Year 6 pupils generally transfer to the following schools:

BOYS - Cardinal Heenan Catholic High School

GIRLS - Broughton Hall Catholic High School

Towards the end of Year 6, the children visit their secondary school on several occasions. There are also meetings for the parents of Year 6 pupils both here and in secondary schools which we would encourage you to attend. After your child has transferred, contact will continue between the head of Year 7 in the secondary school and ourselves to try and ensure a smooth transition for your child between schools.

Parents who live outside the parish boundary are reminded of the importance of this criteria annually.
