      For Catholics, the kid must be baptised when born and get the baptism cert. No further letter is required. This cert can get you into Phase 2B at all Catholic schools.


      Some schools may also require the parent to be baptised but in my experience, the kid must be baptised to be eligible for this phase. I had to submit my kid’s cert in the application. I can’t remember if they wanted my cert but I brought along anyway.

      No point asking MOE as they will ask you to check with the school directly. If the schools you rang said they want both certs, then you must have both certs. You can’t ask MOE to supercede this requirement.

        I called up 2 Catholic schools in my area and both schools said only 1 parent needs to be baptised and to bring along my baptism certificate. The child does not need to be baptised. MOE would not be able to advise you on this requirement as I don think they control that aspect of the critieria. As far as I know even those top school’s have their own alumni/church criterias which differs from each other…

          that is expected because Catholic's has infant baptism but not the Protestants

          and these are church-based MOE schools

                I guess if he child has been baptised, the parent(s) should already be baptised too 😉
