Brampton Manor Academy: 0.82 miles, 2025/26 Ellen Wilkinson Primary School: 0.78 miles, 2025/26, published by Newham

This is not a catchment area. 0.82 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 Brampton Manor Academy 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 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 Brampton Manor Academy and Ellen Wilkinson Primary School are both in reach

Both distances are drawn on the map above. Ellen Wilkinson Primary School admitted from 0.78 miles in 2025/26, published by Newham. Its own page has the rest of its figures.

No postcode district has its centre inside both distances. The two schools admit from 0.82 and 0.78 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.

Common questions

What is the catchment area for Brampton Manor Academy?

Brampton Manor Academy 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 2025/26 lived 0.82 miles away, per Newham.

How close do I need to live to get a place at Brampton Manor Academy?

Nobody can say in advance, and anyone who does is guessing. 0.82 miles was enough in 2025/26, and at 146% full the school has little slack. 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 Brampton Manor Academy guarantee a place?

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