How to read this
Most English schools do not have a catchment area. When All Saints' Academy, Cheltenham 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.
With no distance limit the map shows the school and the postcode you check, and claims nothing about a boundary.
The address on the closing date is the one the council uses. How admissions work.
One published year so far: 2024/25, from Gloucestershire. With two or more, the map can draw any of them.
