Common questions
How many private schools are there in SW1X?
63 fee-paying schools within 3 miles of central SW1X, Westminster, from the Department for Education's register. Each one's age range, whether it selects and how full it is are listed on this page.
Do private schools in SW1X have Ofsted ratings?
No, and a blank rating is not a bad sign. Fee-paying schools are inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate rather than Ofsted, and the ISI publishes no open data feed, so no rating exists for us to show.
Are private schools in SW1X selective?
16 of the 63 select on ability at entry, according to their admissions policy on the register. The rest do not, though most fee-paying schools still assess applicants in some way.
Are there single-sex private schools in SW1X?
16 of the 63 take boys only or girls only. The rest are mixed.
