Mayfield Church of England Primary School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Mayfield Church of England Primary School?

The catchment area for Mayfield Church of England Primary School is the geographic zone East Sussex uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.
