Whenever there are more applications than places available, priority will always be given to Catholic children in accordance with the oversubscription criteria outlined in our admissions policy (attached below).
Everyone applying for a place at St Pius X must submit an online application through Essex County Council, however if you wish to apply for a place at St Pius X under a faith criterion you must also provide the school with:
1) A completed Supplementary Information Form (attached below)
2) Evidence of Religious Practice (i.e baptism certificate and letter of religious practice from your Priest/Minister.)
These documents must be supplied directly to the school office before the application closing date on 15th January 2025.
