West Berkshire School Catchment Areas
West Berkshire has 99 schools - 67 primary and 10 secondary - spread across a mix of towns and areas.
School density is highest in Reading and Newbury - parents in other parts of West Berkshire should check the exact distance-offered figure from the previous year before banking on proximity alone.
Selective schools are part of the mix in West Berkshire - for those applying to grammar schools, a selective admissions test is required in addition to the standard admissions process.
Based on the latest published capacity data, 14 of the 99 schools in West Berkshire are at or above their admission number, so catchment distance is decisive at those schools. West Berkshire has 1 selective school that admit by entrance test rather than distance. 38 schools apply faith-based criteria alongside catchment distance. Of the 23 West Berkshire schools with a current Ofsted rating, 21 are rated Good or Outstanding.
