Hatfeild Primary School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Hatfeild Primary School?

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

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

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