Schools in Surrey

Surrey County Council coordinates admissions for state schools across the county, one of the largest in England. The schools in this area fall under Surrey's admissions framework, which applies nearest-school tiebreakers for oversubscribed community schools after siblings and looked-after children.

Surrey contains a large number of grammar schools, particularly in areas such as Sutton (which borders the county), Kingston and Guildford. Families should check whether their child is eligible and registered for the Surrey Selection Test if a selective secondary is within reach.

Surrey's popular primary and secondary schools can be heavily oversubscribed, with last-distance-offered figures sometimes falling below one kilometre in suburban areas. Always verify the catchment boundary for your specific address using Surrey County Council's online admissions tool.
