How places are allocated in Hampshire

Primary schools: LA publishes a catchment area for each community/VC school, though 'not all schools operate a catchment area.' (source)

Most schools use the local authority's default scheme rather than a school-specific catchment map — see each school's page for its own designated/catchment area where one is published.

Andover straddles a council boundary: the scheme above is Hampshire's, and Wiltshire also has schools here, applying under its own.
