Do schools in Sutherland have catchment areas?
Scottish schools have catchment zones, set by Highland and published on its website. A child living in a school's zone is normally given a place there; to apply for a school outside your zone you make a placing request.
How do I apply for a school place in Sutherland?
Children are normally given a place at their catchment school, and Highland writes to families to confirm it. To ask for a different school, make a placing request to Highland - these usually open in November and close in mid-March for the following August.
