Once you decide you would like a place you must make a formal application. A fresh application must be made for children who are not moving on from our Year 11 to Post-16 education in Year 12 here.

How to apply

Most children join our school at the normal round, the main intake into school from the start of September in Year 7. As a parent, you can apply for a place to the Local Authority. Do come and talk with us if you are interested in a place in a different year group for any reason.

For questions about your child joining the school or the admissions process in general, please do not hesitate to contact the school direct or contact Plymouth CAST by email to Rose Colpus-Fricker (Chief Operating Officer) [email protected]

If you are interested in your child joining the school in-year (once the academic year has started), you can apply for a place through the relevant Local Authority. Applications for transfer into Years 12 and 13 are made direct to our sixth form, either by a parent or the young person themselves. Our application form is below. We have a closing date for the main intake into Year 12 although applications can still be made afterwards.

There is a right of appeal and to a place on a waiting list for places where an application is refused.

Admission Arrangements
 

Plymouth CAST is the admissions authority for our school. It has responsibility for the admissions policies and decisions on applications for admission. We have an admissions policy for each academic year, and they will be published on this page when they are proposed for consultation and after they have been determined annually. They are written to comply with the School Admissions Code 2021 and School Admissions Appeals Code 2022.

 Our Admissions Policies

You can find our admissions policies below – we review the school policy annually and may make changes if we feel this would be in the best interests of the school and our community. Each academic year has its own policy document, with details about how to apply for a place in school.

Please find our Admission Information below related to the following application circumstances:
  • If you are applying to St Boniface for a place for your Son to start in September 2025
  • If your Son is already attending a secondary school but you would like to apply to St boniface for a place in Years 7-11 during the academic year 2024-25.
If you would like to apply for a place in NDSBC Sixth, our joint 6th Form, for September 2025 or if you are already in Year 12 or 13 and would like to apply then please go to the NDSBC Sixth page.
