1. To make things easier and possible to do from your own home, we have put together most of our forms into a single one (see below). We would be very grateful if you could complete this electronic form and submit it.
Before you start completing the form, please have a quick look through it all to check that all the information you will be asked for is available to you. You won't be able to save part of your answers to come back later and finish it.
If your child is not In Reception and you are using this form to renew your details, please ignore the "Nursery" part.
If your have more than one child at our school, fill in this form only for one of them. You will find another, simplified form underneath this one to give us the individual details of his/her siblings.

![]() The ethos of this school is Catholic. The school was founded by the Catholic Church to provide education for children of Catholic families. Whenever there are more applications than places available, priority will be given to Catholic children in accordance with the over-subscription criteria listed in the school’s published admission policy. The school is conducted by its governing body as part of the Catholic Church in accordance with its Trust Deed and Instrument of Government and seeks at all times to be a witness to Our Lord Jesus Christ. As a Catholic school, we aim to provide a Catholic education for all our pupils. At a Catholic school, Catholic doctrine and practice permeate every aspect of the school’s activity. It is essential that the Catholic character of the school’s education be fully supported by all families in the school. We therefore hope that all parents will give their full, unreserved and positive support for the aims and ethos of the school. This does not affect the right of an application who is not Catholic to apply for and be admitted to a place at the school in accordance with the admission arrangements. A Certificate of Catholic Baptism or Reception into the Catholic Church is required in order for the Governing Body to give the correct priority to an application. Failure to provide evidence of Catholic Baptism or Reception in the Church may affect the over-subscription criterion that the child’s name is placed in. |

The information below is about our wrap around care at St Martin de Porres. Although we normally have both Breakfast and after-school clubs running everyday in school, we are still awaiting on some Government guidance to know whether these clubs will be able to run for all children in the new academic year. As soon as we receive guidance, we will inform you. Please accept our apologies on this.
