It appears to have an entrance test and faith requirements so appears to be a catholic grammar school....

Re: Guidance and information required
certainly looks like one on its own. quite complicated oversubsciption criteria - must have more of a read later!
Re: Guidance and information required
The gist of seems to be that you have to pass the test (but it might be a pretty low standard to pass) and then if they are oversubscribed the decision is made on a faith basis and inner area / outer basis area (rather than distance to home address or score).
What are the results like? It looks to me as though it would be like a Catholic comprehensive with the bottom sets missing.
