Common questions
How many private schools are there in SW8?
46 fee-paying schools within 3 miles of central SW8, Lambeth, 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 SW8 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 SW8 selective?
12 of the 46 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 SW8?
10 of the 46 take boys only or girls only. The rest are mixed.
