Straight-line distance from each school's register location, in miles: schools within 2 miles, widened to 5 or 10 miles where fewer than 10 schools are that close. Register details: Get Information about Schools, DfE (extract of 24 Oct 2026). Ofsted: the latest outcome in our data (Ofsted management information as at 30 Sep 2026, so a newer report may exist). Where no Ofsted outcome is shown we do not hold one; many independent schools are inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate instead. Phase colours match the map. Governance Register does not rank schools.
