Unity Academy Blackpool Catchment Area Information
Admission to Unity Academy Blackpool follows a different process from mainstream schools. Blackpool assesses each child's Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) to determine appropriate placement — catchment area does not apply in the same way as mainstream admissions.
For more information on how Blackpool assesses EHCP placements and which schools are named, contact the council's SEND team directly. The council must publish its Local Offer explaining available provision.
