Schools

Living near a school does not guarantee a place. For Surbiton, school applications go through Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, the education authority (not Kingston upon Thames council). Admission rules can differ from school to school — for example at academies and some faith schools — so read the published arrangements for every school that matters to you, and check Ofsted reports, before choosing a street.
