Does anybody know where I can find primary school admissions furthest distances? Southwark council has published the figures for this year's intake, but I want to see what the trends are for my nearest schools so I thought it would be good to have the distances from a few years back too

Here's the Starting School in Southwark 2014/15 booklet that should have distances for this year (p. 18): http://www.southwark.gov.uk/downloads/download/2483/primary_school_admissions


If you google "Starting School in Southwark" and a different year the old version of this same booklet should come up.


Same for Lewisham.

This tool is slightly frustrating (but is the one that is consistently recommended) - if you live on a long road, your postcode just narrows it down to the houses on your side of the street. So when you put a postcode into this mapping tool, it just picks a point on the middle of our road, which is quite long and we live right at the end.

Can anyone enlighten me as to how to use it more accurately?!

Just worked out.... Scroll down the page to below map, click on 'measure distance tool'


You can then plot exact crow flies distance by touching map ( ie your house location) the adding second point as school location. Much more accurate


Press clear last point or clear map to try again


More accurate than just postcode

    • Whose priorities? Peckham Rye station is operated by Southern Railway. Southwark Council doesn’t own or operate the station, and it can't force Southern or anyone else to install lifts at the station. I'd love there to be lifts at Peckham Rye. It would be very expensive.
    • Anything that improves the front of the station has to be a good thing. Opening up the square in front is a superb idea, it will show the beauty of the architecture of the station, just as they did at Kings Cross when they ripped out the monstrosity of the 1960's frontage and now the station gleams. People probably go there to see the beauty of it. Now wouldn't it be good if once opened up and cleaned up, people visited to see how wonderful it then looks. I guess there is a generally lack of trust that the station square will open by the end of next year, HOWEVER, when the current frontage is removed and the square is opened up as it originally was it will look grand.  
    • i) You must think Liebour can do no wrong, can lie through their teeth and yet you appear to believe every word Starmer and his stooges utter. ii) More assumptions made by you, well guess what you're utterly W R O N G, seems like that's your first trip, just as I predicted.  iii) and you won't be blaming me old man. Shockingly, I actually have to agree with some of the points you've raised.  Reform are the relics of BNP and UKIP, both detestable so add them together and you get an even worse result which is Reform that the UK can do without. 
    • Farage has done nothing but divide and diminish this country, all in the name of his ego and his bank balance. Brexit has made us poorer and has damaged our influence in the world. He supported Trump who is directly threatening our interests and he supported Liz Truss' disastrous budget. He has done his best to ensure our country's decline and now people too proud to admit their mistakes and the deleterious impact of UKIP / The Brexit party / Reform Ltd are again voting for him to finish the job / nail down the coffin lid. Yes, he is a plastic patriot.
