Brookfield Primary Academy Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Brookfield Primary Academy?

The catchment area for Brookfield Primary Academy is the geographic zone Sutton uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.

As an academy, Brookfield Primary Academy sets its own admissions criteria, agreed with Sutton. The catchment area boundary is defined in the school's annual admissions policy, which may differ from the LA's general school admissions arrangements.

The last-distance figure is likely to remain tight if demand holds at this level.

The fill-rate figure above reflects overall demand, but the school's intake also varies by community profile. 14.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, below the national average. The school draws primarily from a lower-deprivation part of Sutton.
