What is the catchment area for Prescot Primary School?

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

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