Schools and school admissions

Wandsworth has a wide range of schools offering a high quality education, enabling pupils to achieve their full potential. The area gives parents the opportunity to choose from a good variety of state funded and independent schools, each highly motivated and offering a broad and balanced curriculum. Pupils attend special schools if that is the placement decided following a statutory assessment of their special education needs.

This section contains details about all state funded schools in the borough and those independent schools which offer assistance with fees. If having studied these pages you require more information or advice on state funded schools please phone Pupil Services on 020 8871 7316 or contact the school direct to request a prospectus.
