How places are allocated in Leicestershire

Primary schools: County divided into defined school catchment areas. (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.

Loughborough straddles a council boundary: the scheme above is Leicestershire's, and Nottinghamshire also has schools here, applying under its own.
