Al-Aqsa Schools Trust Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Al-Aqsa Schools Trust?

The catchment area for Al-Aqsa Schools Trust is the geographic zone Leicester uses to prioritise admissions when this not applicable school receives more applications than it has places. Children living inside the boundary are ranked higher under the oversubscription criteria, after looked-after children and, in most years, faith-based criteria. Leicester publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.

Admission to Al-Aqsa Schools Trust is managed by Leicester and typically includes both faith criteria and catchment area proximity. The weighting given to each criterion depends on the school's published oversubscription policy, which is reviewed annually.

The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Leicester before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
