This is not a catchment area. 4.84 miles was last year's outcome, not a boundary and not a promise.
How to read this

Most English schools do not have a catchment area. When Holy Trinity CofE Primary School, Sunningdale is oversubscribed, places go outward from the school until they run out, so the distance moves each year with how many families applied and where they lived.

Distances are measured from the postcode's centre, not a front door; a postcode covers a few houses. Siblings, looked-after children and faith criteria come before distance, so a school can fill before distance counts at all.

Real admission areas are not circular: the circle is the distance, not a boundary. The labels on the map are postcode districts whose centre falls inside both circles; each opens the district's guide.

The address on the closing date is the one the council uses. How admissions work.

Where Holy Trinity CofE Primary School, Sunningdale and The Royal First School are both in reach

Both distances are drawn on the map above. The Royal First School admitted from 1.88 miles in 2025/26, published by Windsor and Maidenhead. Its own page has the rest of its figures.

No postcode district has its centre inside both distances. The two schools admit from 4.84 and 1.88 miles, and the ground those circles share holds no district centre, which is a fact about where the centres fall rather than about any one address. The map above shows both, and the postcode checker answers for both.

Sign up to save both schools and be told when either council republishes the distance these answers rest on.

Drop The Royal First School and go back to one school.
