What the admissions data actually guarantees
A house advertised as in catchment may not be next year. The local council publishes last year's furthest distance offered for each school. Ask for that figure in writing before you offer.
Ratings age too. An Outstanding judgement can be several years old, and inspections since September 2024 report differently. Read the current report rather than the agent's summary of it.
The detail behind the Tadworth numbers
The schools families ask about here are Tadworth Primary School, Chinthurst School, Secondary schools (nearby) and Independent schools (nearby). 1 local school was graded Good or Outstanding at their last graded Ofsted inspection (before September 2024). Ratings age between inspections, so read the latest report before you rely on one.

| Who it suits | Out of five | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Families | ★★★★★ | A Good village primary, strong independents nearby, open heath and downland, and low river-flood risk on the chalk, a genuine family choice. |
| Upsizers | ★★★★★ | Larger detached homes on generous, leafy plots by Walton Heath and the Downs, exactly the space upsizers seek. |
| Commuters (to London) | ★★★★☆ | Two Zone-6 stations (Tadworth and Tattenham Corner) to London Bridge and Victoria, a real plus, though a branch line rather than an express. |
| Professionals | ★★★★☆ | A green village within the M25 (Junction 8 close) for the orbital, Gatwick and the City, well placed for work. |
| First-time buyers | ★★☆☆☆ | A premium, detached-heavy market with a KT20 average well above the national figure makes the first step hard. |
