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 2025 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it. In 2026 the school was not oversubscribed, so no distance limit applied.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2025 lived 2.34 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year.

Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 3% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally.
