Brockington College Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Brockington College?

The catchment area for Brockington College is the geographic zone Leicestershire uses to prioritise admissions when this secondary 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. Leicestershire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.

Admission to Brockington College is managed by Leicestershire 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.
