More Park Catholic Primary School admissions and catchment area

Academy - non-selective

No entrance test - you apply on the common application form

More Park Catholic Primary School does not run its own entrance test. As an academy, its governing trust is the admissions authority and sets the arrangements within the national Admissions Code, while Kent County Council coordinates applications and offers. Oversubscription criteria usually cover looked-after children, siblings, distance from the school, and (for faith schools) faith criteria. As a Roman Catholic school, faith-based criteria may apply in oversubscription - a supplementary information form is usually required.

Dates and criteria change each year - always confirm with the school and Kent County Council. KCC school admissions
