School applications

We've matched this area to Somerset.

You apply through this education local authority even if the school is in another council area.

Last place offered

None of these schools has a published last distance, so we cannot compare this postcode with last year's places. We do not draw catchment maps in this list; where we hold a council's map, it is on the school's page.
