Catchment, explained
How catchment works at Chesham Grammar School
After passing the STT (121+), priority follows looked-after/pupil-premium, siblings, staff, then catchment children, then all other children; nearest distance breaks ties.
Check whether the school uses a named priority area, home-to-school distance, or other priority groups. The map is a starting point, not an admissions decision.
