Primary schools near HA5

In 2026, 692 of the 804 HA5 postcodes in Harrow were inside the cut-off at Whitefriars School, more than at any other school near HA5.

The 7 Harrow primary schools within 2,000 m (1.24 miles) of the centre of HA5, and any up to 3,000 m (1.86 miles) away whose latest cut-off reached at least one HA5 postcode. Past years are a guide, not a promise: cut-offs move every year.

Distances are from postcode centres and estimated school measuring points. We use each council’s measuring method, but for now we estimate the point on each school site that the council measures to, so our distances can differ slightly from the council’s.

Schools near HA5 and their latest cut-offs

For each school, we measured a straight line from the centre point of each of the 804 HA5 postcodes in Harrow to the point the council measures to, as Harrow Council does, and compared it with the school’s latest last distance offered. A postcode within 75 m of the cut-off, either side, counts as borderline: where a home sits in its postcode could put it on either side.

“No cut-off” means every applicant was offered a place at the school or at a school they ranked higher, so places never ran out on distance.

Using this page

A postcode covers several homes, and the council measures from each home’s own address point, so two neighbours can fall either side of a cut-off. A borderline postcode could go either way, so check your exact address before you rely on it.
