Notes on the council’s figures
- 2026: Places ran out within criterion 2 (baptised Catholic children with a Certificate of Catholic Practice); the distance is the furthest offered under it.
- 2025: Places ran out within criterion 7 (members of other faiths, Churches and denominations); the distance is the furthest offered under it.
- 2025: Read from Lambeth's web page through WebFetch.
- 2024: These contradict each other (6 places went to 'any other children', criterion 10, yet the last distance is given under criterion 4), so we can't tell where places ran out and the year isn't judged.
- 2023: Places ran out within criterion 4 (baptised Catholic children with practising Catholic parents); the distance is the furthest offered under it.
- 2023: Within that criterion the school ranks by frequency of Mass attendance before distance and splits distance places 75%/25% between Corpus Christi and St Philip and St James parishes, so the distance isn't a simple cut-off for faith applicants.
Things to know before you apply for September 2027
- Faith criteria rank by frequency of Mass attendance before distance, and (2023-2024 rules) distance places in the practising-Catholic criterion are split 75/25 between Corpus Christi and St Philip and St James parishes, so a published distance isn't a simple cut-off for faith applicants: every year is marked rules_uncertain.
