Common questions
What is the catchment area for Littletown Primary Academy?
Littletown Primary 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 2026/27 lived 0.4101681434625375 miles away, per Devon.
How close do I need to live to get a place at Littletown Primary Academy?
Nobody can say in advance, and anyone who does is guessing. 0.4101681434625375 miles was enough in 2026/27. 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 Littletown Primary 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.
