Schools in W1F — FAQ

How good are the schools in W1F?
W1F (West End, Westminster) scores 0/100 for schools — below average of the 179 London postcodes we cover (rank 174). There are 25 schools within a mile, of which 1 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 W1F?
5 primary and 1 secondary schools sit within a mile of W1F, drawn from the DfE GIAS register of open establishments. A further 19 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 W1F 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 Ofsted single-word judgements were withdrawn in September 2024 — we display the legacy grade where the school hasn't yet been re-inspected under the report card framework.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.
