School applications

We've matched the postcode to Kent.

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

Tonbridge and Malling is the district council. School applications go through Kent.

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.
