Admission criteria at Good Shepherd RC School
If more children apply than there are places, the 2026 rules offer places in this order.
- Places are offered under the school's own admission rules, set by its governing body or academy trust and published by the school. Lewisham's documents don't restate them and Lewisham publishes no figures for this school, so we don't show these rules or judge this school.
- Lewisham's documents don't say how this school measures distance or where distance comes in its rules.
Where a year’s rules are missing from our data, we use the nearest year’s.
Read the official admission rulesApplying to start primary school in September 2027 (Lewisham Council): how to apply (up to six preferences, closing date 15 January 2027, offers 16 April 2027), community school criteria, the 2026 allocation table and the list of primary schools with published admission numbers. Schools that are their own admission authority set their own criteria. The school’s own published arrangements always take priority over our summary.
