Ealing
St Benedict's School
Exceptional results, but a place depends on the entrance test rather than where you live — worth a look only if you are planning to sit it.

Admissions and catchment
Independent schools run their own admissions outside the council process, so there is no catchment area or last offer distance to compare against. Registration and assessment dates are on the school’s website.
