Plymouth School Catchment Areas

Plymouth coordinates admissions across 69 primary and 19 secondary schools, with oversubscription criteria applied consistently across the authority.

The vast majority of schools in Plymouth are concentrated in Plymouth — distance and catchment criteria apply as usual, but choice is limited outside the main settlement.

Selective schools are part of the mix in Plymouth — for those applying to grammar schools, a selective admissions test is required in addition to the standard admissions process.
