Schools in Berkeley
Berkeley is a small market town in the Vale of Berkeley, Gloucestershire, with five schools serving the surrounding villages as well as the town centre. All three rated schools in the area have received Good or Outstanding from Ofsted. One school is oversubscribed, and the average fill rate of 92% signals tight capacity — parents should apply early and include backup preferences.
Gloucestershire County Council coordinates admissions. Distance is the main tie-breaker for community schools, while the two academies in the area operate their own criteria. The area's single secondary, Berkeley Academy, draws from a wide rural catchment covering several surrounding villages.
