Schools in Kidlington
Kidlington is a large village north of Oxford, with 8 primary schools and 1 secondary school administered by Oxfordshire County Council. Oxfordshire does not operate a grammar school system. Five of Kidlington's schools are faith schools — primarily Church of England and Roman Catholic voluntary-aided schools — which prioritise baptised or practising faith applicants ahead of distance.
Demand for Kidlington school places is influenced by the town's location close to Oxford and its excellent road and rail links. Oxfordshire County Council coordinates admissions and publishes individual school catchment maps. For faith schools, families should review the schools' own supplementary information forms (SIFs) as part of their application, submitted alongside the LA common application form.
