Holy Trinity CofE Secondary School, Crawley was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 159 families who put it first were offered a place. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 1.16 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. After Year 11, 93% of its leavers went on to education, an apprenticeship or work that they stayed in for at least two terms. Overall pupil absence was 10.7%. There are about 16.5 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
