About Christ Church CE Academy

For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 53 applications for just 27 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.96. All 22 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while the school is popular, those who put it top of their list have a strong chance of getting in.
