Changes to Admission Arrangements for St Ninian’s High School

St Ninian’s High School is full to capacity and demand for places is beginning to exceed the number of places available for the resident population.

The neighbouring non-denominational secondary schools have adequate available space which the council is seeking to utilize in order to alleviate the over-crowding at St Ninian’s.

To alleviate these problems, the Council has proposed to amend the admission criteria to St Ninian’s.

Firstly, it is proposed that priority of admission to St Ninian’s will be given to children resident within the school catchment area.

Secondly, in cases where there is greater demand for places than those that are available for local residents, it is proposed that families who have a proven affiliation with the Catholic faith will be given priority of admission.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE HAVE YOUR SAY!

Please take a few minutes to visit the following webpage to support the proposed changes so that all Baptised catholic school children are able to attend their chosen secondary school.
