Notre Dame Catholic Girls' School Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for Notre Dame Catholic Girls' School?
The catchment area for Notre Dame Catholic Girls' School is the geographic zone Southwark uses to prioritise admissions when this secondary school receives more applications than it has places.

Southwark publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
Admission to Notre Dame Catholic Girls' School is managed by Southwark and typically includes both faith criteria and catchment area proximity. The weighting given to each criterion depends on the school's published oversubscription policy, which is reviewed annually.
The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Southwark before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
