Schools in Middlesex

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

Middlesex as an administrative county no longer exists, having been absorbed into Greater London in 1965. Schools listed under this area sit within west London boroughs including Ealing, Harrow, Enfield and Hounslow, each of which operates its own admissions authority and catchment boundaries.

Because multiple London boroughs share the Middlesex postcode heritage, admissions processes differ by school. Families should identify which borough their local school belongs to - Ealing, Harrow or Hounslow - and apply through that borough's admissions system using the local authority's online portal.

Several schools in this area are oversubscribed, particularly at secondary level in Ealing and Harrow where grammar schools also draw applicants. Check each school's admissions policy individually and note that the London-wide secondary application deadline differs from primary deadlines.

Catchment area boundaries for schools in Middlesex are set by Ealing and updated each year. The "last distance offered", how far the furthest successful applicant lived, changes annually based on the number of applications received.
