Schools in Brentford

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

Brentford is a west London district in the London Borough of Hounslow, undergoing significant regeneration around its waterfront and the new Brentford FC Community Stadium. Three of the six local schools have a faith designation — including Catholic and Church of England primaries — and the average fill rate of 85% reflects urban London demand patterns. One school is formally oversubscribed.

The London Borough of Hounslow coordinates admissions borough-wide. Faith schools apply denominational criteria before distance; St Paul's CofE Primary School requires regular church attendance evidence, typically a reference from the parish priest or vicar. The two secondary schools — Brentford School for Girls and Isleworth & Syon School for Boys — are single-sex schools operating their own academy admissions arrangements.
