"A man took a grain of mustard seed, and sowed it in his field. Indeed, the seed is smaller than all seeds but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches."
Sacred Heart is described as a vibrant caring Catholic community where children know each other and the staff. Assemblies, led by both staff and children, provide time to reflect on Christian responsibilities toward others and to celebrate achievements. The education blends traditional and innovative teaching methods within an academically demanding and exciting curriculum with a focus on Gospel values and on developing an education centred around God’s love for all.
Admissions policies reference that baptised Catholic children should provide the original baptism certificate (and a copy). Practising Catholics must submit a Certificate of Catholic Practice signed by their Parish Priest. If applicable (categories 6–8), baptism certificates from the family’s own faith are required. Admissions to Hilary House ASD Base are through Wandsworth SNAS; mainstream reception admissions apply to non-ASD places. The school provides In-Year Admissions information and Admissions Policy 2025-2026; contact details for admissions inquiries are available through the school office.
