City of London School Catchment Areas

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

City of London is a compact authority with 9 schools — 1 primary and 0 secondary — meaning most families have a limited number of realistic options within a reasonable distance.

The vast majority of schools in City of London are concentrated in London — distance and catchment criteria apply as usual, but choice is limited outside the main settlement.

Selective schools are part of the mix in City of London — for those applying to grammar schools, a selective admissions test is required in addition to the standard admissions process.
