Understanding School Address

The address provides the school’s physical location. This is essential for practical planning and understanding the school’s neighborhood context.

Practical Uses

The address helps you: - Plan your route for visits - Calculate travel distances - Understand the local area - Verify catchment eligibility

Catchment Considerations

While addresses don’t directly determine admissions, they’re related to: - Distance calculations for oversubscribed schools - Geographic priority areas - Transport planning

For Parents

Use the address to: - Plan school run logistics - Check public transport options - Understand the surrounding area - Assess parking and drop-off options

Combined with the postcode and coordinates, the address enables accurate distance calculations and journey planning for your school choice.
