Does Sale Grammar School have a catchment area?
Sale Grammar School does have a catchment area which defined by postcodes M33, WA14, WA15, plus Trafford Authority residents within the M23 postcode. However, entry to the school is based firstly on the scores achieved in the 11+ tests.
How Does Place Allocation Work?
Where qualifying applications exceed the number of places available, places will be allocated in the following order of priority:
Looked after children and all previously looked after children.
Up to 15 applicants who qualify for Pupil Premium, residing in the priority admission area or who attend a Trafford state funded primary school whose permanent home address lies within the Trafford Local Authority but not within the priority admission area.
Applicants residing in the priority admission area as defined by postcodes M33, WA14, WA15, plus Trafford Authority residents within the M23 postcode. Where the number of applicants qualifying for admission under this criterion exceeds the number of places available, priority will be given to those applicants residing closer to the school.
Applicants from outside the priority admission area will be placed in rank order as determined by their scores in the selection tests.
