Do schools in Blakeney have catchment areas?
Most state schools in Blakeney have no fixed catchment boundary. When a school is oversubscribed, Gloucestershire allocates places on its published criteria - usually looked-after children first, then siblings, then home-to-school distance - so the practical cut-off moves each year. Each school's page here shows an estimate of its catchment radius.
