Secondary school allocation maps

To assist parents in making an informed decision about which school to apply for we have included maps for the oversubscribed schools. We can only show the outcome for those applicants that placed the schools on their application as their 1st preference. Maps are available for Waldegrave School for Girls, Orleans Park and Teddington Schools.
