What is the catchment area for Lytham Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School?
The catchment area for Lytham Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School is the geographic zone Lancashire uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.

Lancashire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
Admission to Lytham Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School is managed by Lancashire and typically includes both faith criteria and catchment area proximity. The weighting given to each criterion depends on the school's published oversubscription policy, which is reviewed annually.
The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Lancashire before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
