What is the catchment area for Heywood Prep?
The catchment area for Heywood Prep is the geographic zone Wiltshire uses to prioritise admissions when this not applicable school receives more applications than it has places.

Wiltshire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
