Is your child starting school in September 2025?

Please download the Surrey County Council leaflet. 

We warmly welcome all families to make applications for September 2025.

Children are admitted to our Reception class in the academic year in which they will be 5 years of age (the academic year runs from 1 September to 31 August).

All Reception children can start full time in the autumn term. The published admission number (PAN) for St Clement’s Catholic Primary School for 2025-2026 is 30.

To apply for a place at this school in the normal admissions round, you should complete and return the following two forms and supporting documents:

1. The COMMON APPLICATION FORM (CAF)

 All applications for places must be made on the Common Application Form which is available from the Surrey County Council website.

https://www.surreycc.gov.uk/schools-and-learning/schools/admissions for Surrey residents or through that Local Authority’s website. For a valid application, the completed CAF must be returned either online or in paper form by 15 January 2025.

2. The school’s SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FORM (SIF)

This form is available or from the ‘application forms’ section of the website, or paper copies can be collected from the school office. The SIF allows the governors to put all applicants in order of priority for admission in line with the published admission policy. The SIF MUST be returned directly to the school to complete your application.

If you are expressing a preference for a place for your child at this school and wish to apply in connection with one of the faith criteria, you need to complete the SIF.

If you do not complete the SIF and return it to the school with all supporting documents (i.e. copies of your child’s BAPTISMAL CERTIFICATE and EVIDENCE OF YOUR CHILD’S BIRTH (birth certificate or passport) and EVIDENCE OF ADDRESS (Council Tax letter or recent utility bill)) by the closing date, your child may not be placed in the appropriate faith criterion. This may affect your child’s chance of being offered a place.

The best way to gain an insight into our school life is to book a school tour with our head, Mrs Irma Chappell, by contacting the office by email info@stclements.surrey.sch.uk or by phone: 020 8393 8789 

Open morning events are set dates on which those interested in sending their child to St Clement's can visit the school and learn more about us. These will usually be held in the Autumn term. Dates of open events will be published on our website once confirmed. 

For a Reception Year admission, the completed SIF, together with all supporting documents, should be returned to the school by the stipulated deadline.

You are advised to keep copies of the forms for your records (whether completed online/on paper).

If you would like to express an interest in the school for a future Reception intake, please contact the school office directly.
