Common questions
What is the catchment area for Tirlebrook Primary School?
It does not have one in the sense most people mean. Like most English schools, when it is oversubscribed it offers places outward from the school until they run out. The nearest thing to an answer is that the furthest child admitted in 2024/25 lived 58.0 miles away, according to Gloucestershire.
How close do I need to live to get a place?
Nobody can tell you that in advance, and anyone who says otherwise is guessing. The distance moves every year with the number of applications. 58.0 miles was enough last year, which makes it the best evidence available, not a promise about next year.
Does buying a house nearby guarantee a place?
No. Admission criteria usually put looked-after children, siblings and sometimes faith or aptitude criteria ahead of distance, so places can be filled before distance is reached at all. Councils also check that the address is genuinely where the child lives.
