St Joseph's Catholic Primary School Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for St Joseph's Catholic Primary School?
The catchment area for St Joseph's Catholic Primary School is the geographic zone Gloucestershire uses to prioritise admissions when this primary school receives more applications than it has places.

Gloucestershire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
Admission to St Joseph's Catholic Primary School is managed by Gloucestershire 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.
