Newport School Catchment Areas

Newport coordinates admissions across 23 primary and 4 secondary schools, with oversubscription criteria applied consistently across the authority.

The busiest areas for schools are Newport and Casnewydd, which together account for the majority of pupil places in the authority.

Admissions to all schools in Newport are coordinated by the council — catchment area and sibling priority are the most common tiebreakers when schools are oversubscribed.
