Motivated by the experimentally observed $\sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}$ iron vacancy order and a block spin antiferromagnetic phase with large magnetic moment in $\mathrm{K}_{0.8}\mathrm{Fe}_{1.6}\mathrm{Se}_2$, we study the magnetic phase diagram of an extended $J_1-J_2$ model on a 1/5-depleted square lattice with $\sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}$ vacancy order, using a classical Monte Carlo analysis. The magnetic phase diagram involves various antiferromagnetically ordered phases, and most of them have higher order commensuration. We find that the experimentally relevant block-spin state occupies a significant portion of the phase diagram, and we discuss the spin dynamics of this phase using a linear spin-wave analysis. Based on our spin wave calculations in different parameter regimes corresponding to the block spin antiferromagnetic phase, we show how spin-wave degeneracy along the high symmetry directions of the magnetic Brillouin zone can provide information regarding the underlying exchange couplings. We have also analyzed the magnetic phase diagram of a $J_1-J_2$ model on two different modulated square lattices relevant for $\mathrm{K}_y\mathrm{Fe}_{1.5}\mathrm{Se}_2$, which respectively exhibit 1/4-depleted $2\times2$ and $4\times2$ vacancy ordering.
