Richard Challoner is a Catholic boys’ school with Academy Status, within the Archdiocese of Southwark. The Governors intend to admit, in September 2024, 150 students without reference to ability or aptitude. The places will be offered according to the criteria set out in the school’s Admissions Policy, which should be referred to before making an application.

Application Procedure for Admission

Year 7 (2024-25)

• All applications for places must be made on the Common Application Form (CAF) and returned to your Local Authority by 31st October 2023. Full details are available on your home Local Authority’s website.
• Please ensure that you complete the school’s Supplementary Form (SIF) if you would like your application to be considered under one of the faith criteria. If this information is not supplied, the Governors will not be able to apply their admission criteria and this is likely to affect the chance of being offered a place. For a Year 7 admission in the normal admissions round for the year 2023-24, the completed SIF, together with all supporting documents, should be returned to the school by 31st October 2023.
  If you would like confirmation of receipt, please include a stamped self-addressed envelope with your application.
