ST. JOSEPH’S CATHOLIC INFANT SCHOOL

 St. Joseph’s Catholic Infant School was founded by the Catholic Church to provide education for children of Catholic families. As a Catholic school, we aim to provide a Catholic education for all our pupils.  At a Catholic school, Catholic doctrine and practice permeate every aspect of the school’s activity.  It is essential that the Catholic character of the school’s education is fully supported by all families in the school.  All families applying are therefore expected to give their full, unreserved and positive support for the aims and ethos of the school.

 The governing body has responsibility for admissions to this school. The Published Admissions Number {PAN} is 70 pupils for admission to reception each academic year. 

 Unsuccessful candidates will be offered the opportunity to be placed on a waiting list. The waiting list will be maintained in order of the over-subscription criteria set out in the current Admissions Policy and not in the order in which applications are received or added to the list.

 

Further information, regarding applying for a primary school place in Brent, can be found at the following web link.

IN-YEAR ADMISSIONS (Reception - Year 2)

Please complete the Supplementary Information Form (SIF) below and return to the school office as well as completing an in-year common application form with Brent (found on the Brent admissions website https://www.brent.gov.uk/services-for-residents/education-and-schools/apply-for-a-school-place/in-year-applications/). If we are unable to offer your child a place  at the school,  you are  entitled to appeal to an Independent Appeals Panel by completing an appeal form, available from the school office.

In addition to the right of appeal for school places (not for nursery places), unsuccessful candidates will be offered the opportunity to be placed on a waiting list. The waiting list will be maintained in order of the over-subscription criteria set out in the current Admissions Policy and not in the order in which applications are received or added to the list. This waiting list will be held open for at least one school year.

 

Our Policy was last consulted upon in December 2016.
