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

Slough has 60 schools - 28 primary and 14 secondary - spread across its towns and areas.

The largest concentrations sit around Slough, Colnbrook and Langley, which together account for a meaningful share of the council's pupil places.

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