Applicants who live outside the catchment area for a junior school are not guaranteed a place for their child even if they attend a “linked” infant school.

Please see the attachment on this webpage to see how junior school places were allocated for the 2009/2010 school year.

Letters advising you which school your child has been allocated will be sent second class on 1 April 2010.
