Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

* Please treat this distance with caution. The council’s document was ambiguous for Princess Frederica CofE Primary School: Brent prints a maximum distance for each admission category; this is the lowest category offered. We read the figure by hand rather than confirming it automatically, so it may not be the exact cut-off. If you have firmer information, for example from the school or the council, we would be grateful if you could share it through our contact page.
