Section 7 · Homebuyer Report
Schools & Ofsted nearby
Family buyers shortlist streets by school. We list nearby open schools with phase and published Ofsted ratings from official DfE data.
Why buyers care
School preference can make or break a purchase. The report surfaces nearby state schools and their published ratings so you can plan viewings around the right catchments — then verify admissions rules with the school and local authority.
Ratings and policies change. Always confirm on official sources before you decide.
Common questions
Does this guarantee a school place?
No. Catchment and admissions rules change yearly. Use the list as research, then check with the school and council.
