In-Year School Admissions: If you are moving into the area or wish to change your son's school during the academic year please apply here.
Transfers: The normal round of admissions from Year 6 to Year 7 opens at the beginning of the Academic Year when your son is in Year 6 (1st September in a given year) and closes on 31st October in that year. To apply for a transfer place, please apply here.
Sixth Form Admissions: Admission to our Sixth Form is governed by the school’s Sixth Form Admissions Policy, which outlines the formal process for entry and the academic requirements for specific courses. Applicants are expected to meet the necessary grade criteria to ensure they are appropriately prepared for the level of study they wish to pursue. As a boys’ school, applicants must be male, and we welcome those who are committed to our Catholic vision of forming great men through both academic excellence and personal development. We encourage applications from students who are ready to engage fully in Sixth Form life and contribute positively to our school community.
