Next year the school will have a smaller 'catchment area' than this year as it bulged (60 places rather than the usual 30). I have heard it's good. If you are looking at Catholic schools in the area, both St Francesca Cabrini (Peckham Rye Ward) and St Anthony's (East Dulwich) have good Ofsted reports and obtained excellent SATs results in 2011, in both schools 90 something percent got level 4+ for Eng, Maths,Science and over half of the children at both schools got level 5 in Eng/Maths.

I know one mum who took her daughter out of SWOY reception class as she found it too strict - her daughter was coming home crying. Afraid I don't know much more than that - it was a passing conversation, so not a lot of context. I was surprised to hear that as we thought it seemed really good when we visited it. Maybe just the wrong mix of child and school (or parent and school)!

hope you're Catholic because even with the bulge only 3 were non-Catholics and they were all Christians with supported applications.


36 spots went to either siblings or parish children this year, so definitely strong competition even for those practicing in the area.

      I didn't say anything was "a fact". I said it was "hardly likely" 🙄 Do you seriously think someone would go out of their way to harm or kill an unusual animal? Even assuming they ever actually saw it? And then you deleted your post. Did you not want people to see what you had said?

      Foxes, and how to get rid

      By vladi · Posted

      If people were diligent about not leaving food items out where it is accessible, then we wouldn't have as big a fox problem. Foxes raid trash bins for food and leave rubbish strewn on the pavement.  Other European cities have strict rules on disposal of edibles and they dont have a fox problem

      You keep insisting that you're "just stating facts", but so far, most of what you've shared isn't fact - it's just your personal opinion, framed with hostility.  Foxes aren't classified as "vermin" in the UK. They're wild animals protected under the Animal Welfare Act & the Wildlife & Countryside Act . & Yes, they do play a vital role in controlling rodent population. The more you double down on insults & misinformation, the more you discredit your own argument. It's possible to be fed up & still informed. Take the information provided to you & do something about it. BTW culling doesn't even work.
