Can I move my child to St Joseph’s mid-year?
Yes. Please contact us to talk through options as soon as you can. We’re always happy to help.
My child has a learning support diagnosis. Can St Joseph’s accommodate this?

I may need help with the fees. Is help available?
Our Admissions team are skilled at answering these enquiries. An open conversation is always welcome and as relevant, means-tested bursaries can be applied for.
Can my child have a Taster Day?
Yes, of course! We do ask that an application has been received and their entrance assessment completed so that we can tailor the day with appropriate sets and subjects.
My child needs transport. Are there spaces?
St Joseph’s transport is available once the child is old enough to operate their own seat belt. Students are welcome to travel on one of our St Jo’s minibuses for which additional fees will apply. For rail travel, we also operate bus shuttle service to and from the train station.
