Why we say “Add your postcode”
- In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 4.7 km from the school. Windsor and Maidenhead printed 2.913 miles (national offer day).
- 375 applications for 180 places in 2026 (2.1 per place).
What could change this
- We measure a straight line from your postcode centre. The council measures from your home address, sometimes along walking routes, so treat anything near the line with care.
- Cut-offs move every year with the number of applicants and siblings.
- Children with an EHC plan, looked-after children and siblings are usually offered places before distance is used.
- Past allocations never guarantee a place.
Rings are to scale in straight-line km. Your marker’s direction is arbitrary; only its distance from the school matters.
