Whitefriars School Catchment Area Information
Admission to Whitefriars School follows a different process from mainstream schools. Harrow assesses each child's Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) to determine appropriate placement — catchment area does not apply in the same way as mainstream admissions.
For more information on how Harrow assesses EHCP placements and which schools are named, contact the council's SEND team directly. The council must publish its Local Offer explaining available provision.
