Dear

Freedom of Information Act 2000

Thank you for requesting information about, distances Coventry pupils live from their school within that school’s catchment area, which the Council received on 13th January 2014. Your request has been considered under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

You have requested the following information;

Can you please provide me with most up to date details of the effective catchment areas of all the primary and secondary schools in your local authority area?

By catchment area, I mean the greatest distance that any pupil was living from the school they were admitted to at the point of their application. To be clear, I am only interested in the catchment area for pupils admitted on geographical criteria alone, not those admitted on other grounds eg because they had siblings at the school, was in foster care or had special needs.

I would prefer this information in electronic format - preferably as a machine-readable spreadsheet (.xls, .ods, etc.)

I also note that as per our telephone conversation on the 16th January 2014, that as certain faith schools within Coventry do not necessarily admit pupils on a traditionally geographical catchment area basis. That information on these schools was not to be provided.

Please note, under the Re-Use of Public Sector Information 2005 Regulations you are free to use this information for your own use or for the purposes of news reporting.

However, any other type of re-use under the Regulations, for example; publication of the information or circulation to the public, will require permission of the copyright owner and may be subject to terms and conditions. For documents where the copyright does not belong to Coventry City Council you will need to apply separately to the copyright holder.

If you wish to apply to reuse the information you have requested or have any other issues relating to this request please do not hesitate to contact me.

You have a right to make representations about the outcome or handling of your request – in the first instance this must be made in writing within 40 working days of the date of this letter, to the Council's Information Governance Team at:

Council House, Room 21a Lower Ground Floor Earl Street, Coventry. CV1 5RR [email protected]

If you have done this and are still dissatisfied, the Information Commissioner can be contacted at:

Yours sincerely
