Admissions
Summary of Admissions Policy
Church of England schools exist to serve the community. We welcome applications from Christian families, families of other faiths and those of none.
Priority is given to looked-after children and children with an educational and health care plan, where St Saviour’s is the named school. 50% of remaining places are foundation places, and 50% are open.
In the event that during the period specified for attendance at worship the church has been closed for public worship and has not provided alternative premises for that worship, the requirements of these admissions arrangements in relation to attendance will only apply to the period when the church or alternative premises have been available for public worship.
Foundation places are for children from Christian families who have worshipped at All Saints or St Nicholas or another local church for at least two years, and who live or worship in Poplar. Open places are for children from other faiths or none. Siblings are prioritised in both categories.
If you are transferring from another school (In-Year admissions) for a class which is oversubscribed, the same over-subscription criteria applies as above.
