Schools in Holsworthy
Holsworthy is a rural market town on the Devon–Cornwall border with 6 primary schools and 1 secondary school. The majority of schools are administered by Devon County Council, with some schools falling under Cornwall Council's jurisdiction. Devon does not operate grammar schools; secondary places are allocated by distance from the school's published admissions address after siblings and looked-after children. Two faith schools apply Church of England religious criteria.
Holsworthy Community College serves secondary-age pupils from a wide rural catchment. Families in outlying villages should confirm which local authority coordinates their application. Devon County Council publishes its admissions prospectus each autumn, with secondary applications due by 31 October and primary applications by 15 January.
