Croydon School Catchment Areas

Croydon coordinates admissions across 87 primary and 23 secondary schools, with oversubscription criteria applied consistently across the authority.

School density is highest in Croydon and London — parents in other parts of Croydon should check the exact distance-offered figure from the previous year before banking on proximity alone.

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