I'd have thought they'd take Catholics first and allocate any places left over to non Catholics. I only know that this is how they do it at St Christopher's. They take C of E churchgoers first and as it's over subscribed there aren't many places left over. At St Christopher's where you live and whether you have siblings in school doesn't matter.
