No. Distance only counts when Aldridge UTC Warrington has more applicants than places. Then its admission criteria, set by its academy trust, decide who is offered a place first. Children in care or adopted from care come first by law. Most schools put brothers and sisters of current pupils next, then distance or a catchment area. How far away the last place went changes every year, depending on who applies.
Aldridge UTC Warrington had 278 pupils aged 14 to 19 at the latest school census. Its official capacity is 620. It is a mixed school with a sixth form.
