Admissions

The Governing Body controls admission to both Nursery and Main School. It tries to offer all pupils who apply a place, but if there are more applications for places than places available preference is given to baptized Catholic children in accordance with its over subscription criteria.

If you would like a place at St Columba’s Catholic School for your child please contact either the Main School Office (Bradford 681961) or the Nursery (Bradford 652692) both of which will be pleased to provide application forms which should be returned to the Office or Nursery.

The Head Teacher will arrange for your application to be considered as soon as possible.

RECEPTION APPLICATIONS FOR ENTRY IN 2023

The online application process for Bradford district residents opens on 15 November and closes on 15 January. Please click on ‘Apply for a school place now’ to apply.
