A few important reminders:

• You have to apply online: www.eadmissions.org.uk
• You can apply for school in Lewisham borough, or any other borough of your choice, however, it is very important that you understand the admissions criteria for the school you’re interested in so you know whether you have a realistic chance of your application being successful.
• Visit as many schools as you can – use the link to see what schools have on offer in terms of open days and/or virtual tours.

We would be very happy to offer assistance to anyone who needs help with the application process, whether you just want to ask advice or whether you want us to help you with the online application. If so, please contact the office, or email schoolmail@stmichaels.lewisham.sch.uk and Ms Gayle will be more than willing to support you.
