High Greave Junior School Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for High Greave Junior School?
The catchment area for High Greave Junior School is the geographic zone Rotherham 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. Rotherham publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
As an academy, High Greave Junior School sets its own admissions criteria, agreed with Rotherham. 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 official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Rotherham before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
