Applications can be made from 1 September 2024.

Early Years Foundation Stage Admissions 24/25

The closing date for applications for places in September 2024 is Monday 15 January 2024.

National offer day - Tuesday 16 April 2024.

Children will be admitted to our Reception Class in line with our Admissions Policy. Up to 30 pupils are admitted each year via the London Borough of Bromley Co-ordinated Admissions Process. This process ensures that all children have equal and fair access to a school place without reference to ability, aptitude, or additional educational need (including SEND).

A Supplementary Information Form should be completed and returned to the Academy with the appropriate documentation at the same time an application is made to Bromley.

Parents whose applications for places are unsuccessful may appeal to an Independent Appeal Panel set up in accordance with section 85(3) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998. Appeals must be made in writing and must set out the reasons on which the appeal is made. Appeals should be made to the Admissions Panel at the school address. Parents/Carers have the right to make oral representations to the Appeal Panel. Infant classes are restricted by the legislation to 30 children. Parents should be aware that an appeal against refusal of a place in an infant class may only succeed if it can be demonstrated that:

  • The admission of additional children would not breach the infant class size limit; or
  • The admission arrangements did not comply with admissions law or had not been correctly and impartially applied, and the child would have been offered a place if the arrangements had complied or had been correctly and impartially applied; or
  • The panel decides that the decision to refuse admission was not one which a reasonable admission authority would have made in the circumstances of the case.

Appeals Timetable 2024: 

30th April 2024 Deadline for parents and carers to accept or decline the school offered online (decisions can be submitted via email after this date)
14th May 2024 Deadline for lodging an Appeal against the decision not to offer a place at St Peter and St Paul Catholic Primary Academy.
June/July 2024 Appeals will be heard up to 40 school days after the deadline. Appellants will receive at least 10 school days notice of their appeal hearing. Decision letters will be sent within 5 school days of the hearing wherever possible.
