Getting a place

How school places work in Hounslow

Hounslow Council handles applications for every state school in Hounslow, academies included. You apply to the council where you live, even for a school in another area.

Secondary (starting at 11)Apply by 31 October of Year 6. Offers on 1 March.

Primary (starting in Reception)Apply by 15 January before the September your child starts. Offers on 16 April.

Moving mid-yearApply to the council for an in-year place; it tells you which schools have room.

When a school is full

Every school publishes its admissions rules. Children in care come first, then, at most schools, brothers and sisters of current pupils, then those who live nearest. 15 of Hounslow’s 67 mainstream schools have a religious character; some of them give priority by church attendance, so check each school’s rules. Infant classes are limited to 30 by law. If you’re refused a place, you can appeal to an independent panel.

Ofsted

Ofsted report cards

Each school’s latest inspection; report cards replace one-word judgements as schools are re-inspected.

Outstanding 8Good 28Report card 10Ungraded inspection only 27No published grade 2

Ofsted stopped giving one-word judgements in 2024. Until a school is re-inspected, its last overall judgement is its most recent single grade; a school judged years ago may have changed a lot since.

Since November 2025 Ofsted gives each area of a school one of five grades (exceptional, strong standard, expected standard, needs attention, urgent improvement) and says whether safeguarding is met, instead of one overall word. 10 of Hounslow’s 75 state schools have a report card so far; the others show their last inspection under the old framework. Ofsted is never part of the School Grade.

Who runs them

21 academy trusts and the council

Academies are state schools run by a trust rather than the council: the trust employs the staff and can set its own curriculum and term dates. Admissions still go through the council.

Special needs

Special schools and alternative provision in Hounslow

Hounslow has 5 special schools (Lindon Bennett, Marjory Kinnon, Oaklands, The Cedars and The Rise Free: 1,006 pupils) and 1 alternative provision school, for pupils who can’t attend mainstream school for a time. A special-school place isn’t applied for like a mainstream one: for a child with an education, health and care plan (EHCP), Hounslow Council names the school in the plan, after asking the family’s preference. These schools have no letter, because their results don’t compare with mainstream schools’. Their cards ↑

Hounslow Council’s SEND Local Offer lists support beyond these schools.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

Expected standard at Key Stage 2. The share of 11-year-olds who reach the expected standard in reading, writing and maths together, in tests and teacher assessment at the end of primary school. We use DfE’s three-year average (2023–2025) to steady small schools.
Higher standard. The share working at greater depth in all three. In Hounslow: 16% (England’s average school: 8%).
Attainment 8. A pupil’s GCSE grades across eight subjects, with English and maths counted twice, added up. 50 is roughly a grade 5 in every subject.
Grade 5+ in English and maths. A strong pass in both. Grade 4 is a standard pass.
Provisional. 2025/26 GCSE figures are DfE’s first release; revised figures follow in February, usually within a point.
Progress 8. Not shown: there is none for 2025/26, because these pupils sat no KS2 tests in 2020 (Covid).
Free school meals. Pupils eligible for free school meals now, from the January census: the usual measure of how many pupils come from low-income homes.
Independent schools. Not included: they publish no results comparable with state schools’.
