We have 60 places for children in Reception at St Mark's C of E Primary School.

In the event of these places being oversubscribed, the places will be allocated in the order given in our Admissions Criteria (below.)

IN-YEAR  ADMISSIONS

Applications for in-year admissions are made directly to the London Borough of Bromley.

In the normal admissions round or at any point in the normal year of entry, if a place is available and there is no waiting list, the child will be admitted {except where the "twice excluded" rule applies.}

For in-year applications received for all other year groups, if a place is available and there is no waiting list, the child will be admitted subject to the admission authority being able to refuse admission if it has good reason to believe that the child may display challenging behaviour and thus refer the child to the Fair Access Protocol.

If more applications are received than there are places available, then applications will be ranked in accordance with the oversubscription criteria above.  If a place cannot be offered at this time you have a right of appeal. You will be offered the opportunity of being placed on a waiting list.

Admissions Arrangements 2021/22

As admission authority, the Aquinas Trust Board has considered the objections/questions raised during the consultation period, together with the academies’ responses and the views of the RDBE prior to making its final determination on the admission arrangements for 2021/22 for Bishop Justus CE School, St John’s CE Primary School, St Mark’s CE Primary School, St Nicholas CE Primary School and Trinity CE Primary School.

Having discussed these concerns fully, the Trust Board has approved all the proposed amendments to the admission arrangements for 2021/22 as it felt the changes proposed would not affect the strong Christian ethos, vision and values already embedded at each academy.
