Schools in Mirfield
Mirfield is a town in the Spen Valley area of Kirklees, West Yorkshire, with 5 primary schools and 2 secondary schools. Kirklees Metropolitan Council coordinates admissions and does not operate a grammar school system; secondary places are allocated by distance from the school's published admissions address after sibling priority. Two of Mirfield's schools are faith schools.
Mirfield's two secondary schools — Mirfield Free Grammar and Whitcliffe Mount — serve the local community and surrounding villages. Despite the word 'grammar' in one school's name, both are non-selective comprehensive schools. Families should apply through Kirklees Council's common application form by the 31 October secondary and 15 January primary national deadlines.
