Questions about Gatton (VA) Primary School
How far away do you need to live to get into Gatton (VA) Primary School?
In 2026, the last place offered under the distance criterion went to a child living 497 m (0.31 miles) away. In the four years with a distance cut-off (2022, 2023, 2024 and 2026), it ranged from 427 m (0.27 miles) (2024) to 2,424 m (1.51 miles) (2023). In 2025, places ran out before the distance criterion was reached, so living nearby wasn’t enough on its own. Cut-offs move each year with the number of applicants and siblings, so treat these as a guide to past years, not a promise.
Do siblings get priority at Gatton (VA) Primary School?
Yes. Under the 2026 admission rules, children with a brother or sister at the school get priority after looked-after and previously looked-after children and children offered faith places, ahead of children admitted on distance. In 2026, 8 of the 90 places went to siblings. In 2025, siblings took every place left after higher priorities, so no places were offered on distance. Check the school’s admission arrangements for who counts as a sibling.
