Outwoods Primary School Catchment Area Information

What is the catchment area for Outwoods Primary School?

The catchment area for Outwoods Primary School is the geographic zone Warwickshire uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.

The catchment area for Outwoods Primary School is set by Warwickshire and reviewed annually. Children living within the catchment boundary receive priority consideration when applications exceed the number of available places.

The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Warwickshire before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
