Acorn Park School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Acorn Park School?

The catchment area for Acorn Park School is the geographic zone Norfolk uses to prioritise admissions when this not applicable school receives more applications than it has places.

Norfolk publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
