School applications

We've matched the postcode to Surrey.

You apply through this education local authority even if the school is in another council area.

Guildford is the district council. School applications go through Surrey.

Last published allocation

None of the schools listed here has a published last-distance figure, so we cannot compare a postcode with last year's allocation. We do not draw catchment maps in this list; where we hold a council's map, it is on the school's page.

Apply for a primary place via Surrey

GOV.UK is the official apply and admissions handoff. We do not link a generic council homepage. Per-LA composite prospectus URLs are not in the API yet.

Spot a mistake on this page? Email [email protected] and we'll check it against the source.
