A huge congratulations in securing your place at Cardinal Newman Catholic School for September 2024. We are thrilled that you have chosen to continue the next part of your academic journey at CNCS, and we cannot wait to meet you. 

Cardinal Newman Catholic School is not just a school. We are a community; a family. Everything we do is inspired by our very own Saint John Henry Newman, and we firmly believe that all pupils are ‘made for greatness’.  

Over the next couple of months, we will be updating this page to ensure that all of our new students and parents have all of the information you need in order to embark on your CNCS journey.  

If you have received a CNCS offer letter, but you no longer require this place, we ask you to let us know by contacting our transition email inbox.  

You will soon receive your welcome letter through the post, and we will enclose a green registration form.  We kindly ask that you complete this form and return to our main reception, or scan and email to our transition email address, by Monday 20th May 2024. 

In the meantime, please contact cncs_transition@hccmac.co.uk if you have any enquiries.
