Schools in Appleby-in-Westmorland

Reviewed by the catchment.school editorial team · Last updated 15 March 2026

Appleby-in-Westmorland in the Eden Valley has 6 schools in the catchment.school database: 5 primaries — including Bolton Primary, Long Marton School, Asby Endowed School and Warcop CofE Primary — and Appleby Grammar School as the local secondary. Westmorland and Furness Council coordinates admissions for all schools in the area.

Appleby Grammar School is a partially selective school: the grammar stream admits pupils by entrance test, while remaining places are filled by distance. Families should clarify which places are selective and which are non-selective before the round opens, as the two streams have distinct criteria. One primary in the area carries a Church of England designation; faith criteria apply at that school ahead of distance. One school in Appleby was at or above its published capacity at last count.
