Blackpool School Catchment Areas
Blackpool has 51 schools - 30 primary and 6 secondary - spread across its towns and areas.
The busiest areas for schools are Blackpool and Thornton-Cleveleys, which together account for the majority of pupil places in the authority.
Around 27% of schools in Blackpool have a religious character - Church of England, Catholic, or other faith - which means faith criteria sit alongside catchment distance in those schools' oversubscription tiebreakers.
Based on the latest published capacity data, 9 of the 51 schools in Blackpool are at or above their admission number, so catchment distance is decisive at those schools. 14 schools apply faith-based criteria alongside catchment distance. Of the 12 Blackpool schools with a current Ofsted rating, 7 are rated Good or Outstanding.
