Will an address get in?

In the 2024/25 round, the furthest-away child offered a place at Huntley Church of England Primary School lived 35.0 miles away, according to Gloucestershire. Put a postcode in and it is measured against that distance.

Applying for September 2027? Primary applications close on 15 January 2027, with offers on 16 April 2027. The address on the deadline is the one the council uses. How it works.

The circle is 35.0 miles, the distance the school admitted from in 2024/25. Real admission areas are not circular: this is the distance, not a boundary.

This is not a catchment area. Most English schools do not have one. When Huntley Church of England Primary School 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. 35.0 miles was last year's outcome, not a boundary and not a promise.

Common questions

What is the catchment area for Huntley Church of England Primary School?

Huntley Church of England Primary School does not have one in the sense most people mean. Like most English schools, an oversubscribed year offers places outward from the school until they run out. The nearest thing to an answer: the furthest child admitted in 2024/25 lived 35.0 miles away, per Gloucestershire.

How close do I need to live to get a place at Huntley Church of England Primary School?

Nobody can say in advance, and anyone who does is guessing. 35.0 miles was enough in 2024/25. The distance moves every year with the number of applications, so treat last year's figure as evidence, not a promise.

Does buying a house near Huntley Church of England Primary School guarantee a place?

No. Admission criteria usually put looked-after children, siblings and faith criteria ahead of distance, so places can be filled before distance is reached. Councils also check that the address is genuinely where the child lives.
