Danetree Primary School Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for Danetree Primary School?
The catchment area for Danetree Primary School is the geographic zone Surrey uses to prioritise admissions when this primary 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 siblings. Surrey publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.

Danetree Primary School has a published admission number of 840 places. 943 pupils were enrolled in the most recent data, giving a fill rate of 112%. At 112% capacity, the school is heavily oversubscribed. Surrey allocates places using ranked criteria: looked-after children first, then siblings, then catchment distance. Living within the catchment area is a strong but not guaranteed advantage, as the last distance offered shrinks each year as applications rise.
The fill-rate figure above reflects overall demand, but the school's intake also varies by community profile. 14.6% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, below the national average. The school draws primarily from a lower-deprivation part of Epsom.
