State School Search in London
Helping your children find the best state schools in London
Looking for state schools in London for your children? Our Experts can help:
Our friendly School Experts have extensive knowledge and years of experience in helping clients secure places in state schools in London.
Preparation and information are paramount to a successful state school application.
Our Experts will:
- Answer all your questions to the best of their knowledge
- Guide you to choose the best neighbourhood for state schools & for your family budget
- Accompany the entire application process until successful
Why are state school applications so difficult in London?
Applying for state schools is not as easy as applying for private schools, for the following reasons:
- Most London state schools are full
- There is no guarantee of obtaining a place in your preferred school
- You cannot apply without a permanent UK address
This means that the choice of neighbourhood will be essential to a successful school application strategy.
And yes, it also means that you will start renting and living somewhere in London, without being sure which school your children will start in :-(.
Whilst we cannot change the system (we wish we could!), we bring our extensive experience of navigating the state school system to you, in order to maximise your chances of getting places in the best possible state schools for your children.
How do we help you find the best state schools for your children?
If you are moving to London with your family for the first time, you will be faced with very important choices:
- Which neighbourhood with good state schools to live in
- Which state school(s) to apply for
Defining your schooling & rental budget requirements will be the first step of our work with you:
- If you are already set on a specific London neighbourhood, we will search for the best state schools in and around that area.
- If you are open about where to live, we will suggest several neighbourhoods in London that suit your schooling and rental requirements.
We will then:
- Contact the local Borough’s admission team to find out about your chances of admission into the local schools
- Assist you with preparing the all-important applications, including gathering the required proofs of address (once you have secured a permanent address in the Borough*)
- Follow-up with the admission team, until a response has been received and a place has been offered to your children.
* We can assist with your rental home search too, follow this link to read about our service.
