St Mary’s is a Voluntary Aided Federation in the Archdiocese of Southwark. It was opened to serve the Catholic community, in particular, the children of practising Catholic families living in the parishes of Holy Cross, Carshalton, Our Lady of the Rosary, Sutton, St Margaret’s, Carshalton Beeches, and Holy Family, Sutton Green.
Parents elect to apply for this school in order to ensure that the Catholic values and way of life are passed on to their children at home, in the parish and at school.
St. Mary's Catholic Junior school intend to admit 90 children into Year 3 each academic year (depending on need and applications received).
We welcome visits to our school before application and hold open days on a monthly basis throughout the year where small groups of parents/carers may visit the school for a tour and have the opportunity to ask questions. These sessions are usually conducted by a senior member of staff and the admissions officer.
If you have any queries regarding the admissions process, please contact Ms Nicol on 0208 647 4342.
Year 3 applications MUST be made through your local authority as well as sending a supplementary application form and bpatism certificate direct to the school. You can apply for all of our local authorities through the e-admissions website
