Eastway Primary School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Eastway Primary School?

The catchment area for Eastway Primary School is the geographic zone Wirral 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. Wirral publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.

The catchment area for Eastway Primary School is set by Wirral and reviewed annually. Children living within the catchment boundary receive priority consideration when applications exceed the number of available places.
