Why an in catchment listing can still miss
A house advertised as in catchment may not be next year. The local council publishes last year's furthest distance offered for each school. Ask for that figure in writing before you offer.
Ratings age too. An Outstanding judgement can be several years old, and inspections since September 2024 report differently. Read the current report rather than the agent's summary of it.
No school in the immediate area currently holds an Outstanding rating. That removes the sharpest premium and widens your search across Wiltshire.

| Character & history lovers | ★★★★★ | A thatched conservation area, a medieval church and a Duke-of-Lancaster past give real historic charm. |
| Country buyers | ★★★★★ | Salisbury Plain, Collingbourne Woods and Savernake Forest nearby make this deep, genuine chalk-country living. |
| First-time buyers | ★★☆☆☆ | A desirable, character village with limited and often period stock, not an easy or cheap entry. |
