Near me search

Nearby is the start of the search, not the whole answer.

A grammar school can appear close on a map and still be the wrong route for your child. The useful version of a near-me search is local enough for a normal week, eligible under the published rules, and comparable with the other schools using the same 11+ route.

Distance and eligibility are different

Some schools use a priority area, named postcodes, rank order, or distance only as a tie-break. Open the school profile before treating the nearest result as a realistic application.

The test route changes the comparison

Two nearby schools may not share a registration form, paper format, or results language. Search by town or postcode, then group schools by their named exam area.

Travel has to work on ordinary days

A school that looks close by car can feel very different after clubs, winter journeys, or a bus change. Save schools only when the weekday journey still feels plausible.

Map view helps spot clusters

The map is best for seeing whether a school sits alone, belongs to a local cluster, or needs comparing with a different town, borough, or county route.
