Schools in SE25 — FAQ

How good are the schools in SE25?
SE25 (South Norwood, Croydon) scores 0/100 for schools — around average of the 179 London postcodes we cover (rank 127). There are 18 schools within a mile, of which 8 hold a positive Ofsted judgement (Good/Outstanding on the legacy scale, or Strong/Exceptional leadership under the new report card).
How many primary and secondary schools are in SE25?
9 primary and 3 secondary schools sit within a mile of SE25, drawn from the DfE GIAS register of open establishments. A further 6 nurseries, sixth forms or specialist schools are also nearby.
Where do the Ofsted ratings come from?
We join the DfE Get Information About Schools (GIAS) register with each school's latest Ofsted inspection. Pre-September 2024 inspections still use the legacy single-word judgement (Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement, Inadequate). Newer inspections use the report card framework, where we display the Leadership area as the headline grade.
Are SE25 schools good for families moving in?
Catchment and admissions don't follow our 1-mile radius — they're set by each school individually. Use this list as a starting point, then check the school's own admissions page for the latest catchment data before committing to a property.

Schools scores are percentiles within our London cohort: relative, not absolute. Ofsted single-word judgements were withdrawn in September 2024 — we display the legacy grade where the school hasn't yet been re-inspected under the report card framework. Catchment areas are set by each school individually and don't follow our 1-mile radius.
