https://www.kent.gov.uk/education-and-children/schools/school-places/primary-school-places

In addition, please return a Supplementary Information Form to the Admissions Officer at the school (not Local Authority). For Year R entry in September 2025 please return this form to the school no later than
15 January 2025 in order that we may rank your application.
Please note failure to submit a completed Supplementary Information form when applying for a Catholic school place may result in your application not being placed in the correct category and could result in you not receiving an offer of a place.
