Common questions

Is living in Drummond Community High School catchment guaranteed admission?

No — Edinburgh catchments give priority for admission, not a guarantee. Catchment children are placed first, but at oversubscribed schools even catchment children can be turned down after siblings and exceptional cases. Most primaries do place all catchment children; the council's official wording is that they cannot always guarantee a place at one of your catchment schools.

How do I confirm my address is in Drummond Community High School catchment?

Check by full address — not just postcode — using the City of Edinburgh Council's interactive catchment map at edinburgh.gov.uk/catchmentmap. Two flats on the same street can fall in different catchments, so always confirm before signing a lease. If you're cutting it close to a boundary, contact the council's school admissions team directly.

Which streets are in Drummond Community High School catchment?

Streets in Drummond Community High School catchment include Abbey Lane, Abbey Mount, Abbey Street, Abbeyhill, Abbeyhill Crescent, Abercromby Place, Albany Lane and Albany Street — 285 streets in total, all listed on this page. The catchment covers New Town, Leith Walk, Bonnington, Broughton, Abbeyhill and Meadowbank. Boundary lines can cut through individual streets, so for an address right on the edge confirm by full postcode at edinburgh.gov.uk/catchmentmap.

Which primary schools feed into Drummond Community High School?

Abbeyhill Primary School, Broughton Primary School and Leith Walk Primary School feed into Drummond Community High School. Each of these primary catchments sits within (or mostly within) the Drummond Community High School secondary catchment. Children moving from these primaries typically continue to Drummond Community High School for S1 without a placing request; children at primaries outside this list would normally need to apply via a placing request.

Can I apply to Drummond Community High School from outside the catchment?

Yes — out-of-catchment applications are called placing requests and are submitted to the council each year. Placing requests are considered only after all catchment children have been placed. For high-demand schools, placing requests from outside the catchment are usually unsuccessful in the most oversubscribed year groups. Apply via edinburgh.gov.uk/schools/school-placing-requests.
