Please Help.
Trying for Cardinal Vaughan.Being in year as we missed applying through the offer day as we are new to this system.
Please can anyone guide if you have received offer for in year admission and what are the chances as I am being told it would be random allocation number as their numbers are full.
Will moving close to the school help if at all.
Looking for yr 7 2023 , all other parameters are in place.
Any other outstanding Catholic secondary schools that I could apply for besides in Brent and around.

Finchley Catholic High has a really good reputation locally.

They use random allocation, so moving closer to the school will make no difference at all. It is a very popular school with roughly 6 applicants for every place. If all the unsuccessful applicants are on the waiting list, I'm afraid your chances of getting a place that way are remote. That doesn't mean it won't happen - someone has to get any place that becomes available. But don't bank on it.
