Common questions
How many private schools are there in SY2?
4 fee-paying schools within 3 miles of central SY2, Shropshire, 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 SY2 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 SY2 selective?
1 of the 4 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.
