Want to Jump to the Top of the Waiting List?

For most year groups, we operate a waiting list that’s updated with every new application. Families eligible for Pupil Premium and/or Universal Credit (low-income households) are automatically placed at the top of this list, regardless of where they live. Prior to coming to the Open Morning, please complete the following form so we have it on file by indicating "One Degree Academy" as the school (please note, although the form mentions Free School Meals, it helps us establish whether you would have access to wider benefits beyond what that implies): https://fsm.lgfl.net/app

If you require assistance, please email admissions@onedegreeacademy.org or call us at 020 3150 1144. We’ll be happy to help you secure a place at One Degree Academy.

No Catchment Area for Lower Income Families

There is no catchment area for families eligible for Pupil Premium and/or Universal Credit (low-income households). These families are given priority admission or go to the top of our waiting list, regardless of their address. Please see above for how to indicate your eligibility.
