Reverend. Lesley is happy to receive Application forms for schools that require a faith reference. Please hand them in to her at church or post to Reverend

Please note that applications consider the church attendance* of parents (not their children) over the previous two years.

E.g., If your child is in year 4, and you are wanting to apply for a place at a church High School, parents must ensure they attend church regularly and have their attendance recorded by the appropriate people at each church. (St John’s - Doreen Whalley; St Anne’s - Clare Turnham)

If you have a Pre-school child and you are wanting to apply for a place at primary schools such as Wheatley Lane School or St Thomas’ Barrowford, parents must also ensure they attend church regularly and have their attendance recorded by the appropriate people at each church. (St John’s- Doreen Whalley; St Anne’s- Clare Turnham).

*Church attendance includes Sunday’s main services; Pizza and Praise at St John’s; Friday Faith and Fun at St Anne’s. All services at both churches count as Reverend Lesley is the Vicar of both churches and writes the faith reference. Most schools ask for a minimum of 2 church attendances per month by parents.
