St Gabriel’s is a Roman Catholic High School in St Teresa of Calcutta Roman Catholic Academy Trust.  The Academy Trust is the admissions authority, and the Local Governing Board is responsible for taking decisions on applications for admissions. For the school year commencing September 2025 the Trust has set its planned admissions number at 210.

The Trust recognises that the first responsibility of the school is to serve the Roman Catholic community for which it has been established.  This is focused on designated parish communities and the Roman Catholic primary schools that are partners in providing for those communities.  In establishing their oversubscription criteria, the Governors have also taken full account of the Code of Practice produced by the Department for Education and the emphasis placed on supporting children in public care.
