Admissions Policies and Supplementary Information Forms
Please see below our Admissions Policies for the academic years 2023-24, 2024-25 and for entry in September 2025. If applying under the Criteria of ‘Regular Worshipper’, a Supplementary Information Form must be submitted at the same time as the CMA application form. For applications under the Criteria of ‘Children of Staff’ for September 2025 entry, a Supplementary Information Form will need to be submitted with the CMA application form.

Timescales
We aim to notify Parents/Carers of the outcome of their application in writing within 10-15 school days. Where the school is oversubscribed and cannot offer a place, the applicant can stay on our waiting list for the remainder of the academic year if required. Should the applicant wish to apply for a place in the next academic year, a new application form must be submitted to Surrey Admissions.
Right of Appeal
Appeals resulting from in-year applications should be heard within 30 school days of being lodged. For more information on timescales and process please refer to the Guidance Notes
