We are consulting on our planned admissions arrangements for students/pupils applying for places in the academic year beginning September 2026. The consultation will run for 6 weeks from 1^st October 2024 to 12^th November 2024.

This consultation is taking place in line with the requirement to consult on admissions arrangements every seven years. We also have the following proposed changes to our arrangements:

• Added children of staff members as a sub-category. 
• Amended oversubscription criteria 2 (Catholic children in parish of Sacred Heart) adding “or St Vincent’s Parish (where Sacred Heart is the closest Catholic school)”

A copy of our draft admissions arrangements can be found here attached below with changes highlighted in yellow

We welcome your views on our proposed arrangements. We will also be happy to answer any questions that you may have. You can share your views or questions by emailing enquiries@sacredheart.sheffield.sch.uk

Please ensure that if you want to share your views you do so by Tue 12^th November 2024. After this date we will share all views with our Local Academy Committee to inform their decision on our admission arrangements. Arrangements will be published by 15^th February 2025.
