Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School?

The catchment area for Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School is the geographic zone Enfield uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.
