Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

Location

Clarendon Primary School at a glance

Located in Ashford, Surrey, Clarendon Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a community school. The school educates roughly 256 pupils aged 2 to 11. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 66% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. Results have held broadly steady on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 38% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 108 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 10% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 72% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (36 first choices for 28 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 0.47 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 5.7%. There are about 21.3 pupils per teacher. Clarendon Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
