Isles Of Scilly School Catchment Areas

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

The Isles of Scilly is England's smallest local authority, serving the five inhabited islands — St Mary's, Tresco, St Martin's, Bryher, and St Agnes — with a single all-through school that takes pupils from reception through to Year 11.

Five Islands Academy is the only school on the archipelago, meaning every primary and secondary-age child attends the same institution. There is no meaningful catchment competition, and all resident children are eligible for a place.

Secondary-aged pupils seeking post-16 provision or specialist subjects typically travel to Cornwall on the mainland, supported by the Council of the Isles of Scilly's transport and boarding arrangements.
