What is the catchment area for Lodge Farm Education?
The catchment area for Lodge Farm Education is the geographic zone Leicestershire uses to prioritise admissions when this not applicable school receives more applications than it has places.

Leicestershire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
Entry to Lodge Farm Education is selective, and applicants must pass the relevant admissions test. Among qualifying applicants, Leicestershire may use distance or catchment area as a tiebreaker when the school is oversubscribed. Check the admissions policy for how the selection and distance criteria interact.
