Applying to middle school on religious / faith grounds

Decorative image: coloured line

Some schools give a priority for admission to practising members of a religion or faith. You will need to submit a confirmation of religious affiliation form which has been signed by your religious / faith leader to apply on these grounds.

If you want to apply for any of these schools on religious or faith grounds you need to ask your priest, minister or faith leader to complete the Church of England Confirmation of Religious Affiliation form (PDF) and return it to us.

If you are applying for a religious school in another area, please check with the relevant school admissions team to see if you need to complete a supplementary information form to support your application.

Church of England schools

The following Church of England schools have priority for religious criteria as part of their admissions policy:

  • Holywell School (Cranfield)

If you are applying for religious schools outside of Central Bedfordshire, you will need to complete one of their religious forms.
