Primary schools near RM12

In 2026, 506 of the 605 RM12 postcodes in Havering were inside the cut-off at Hacton Primary School, more than at any other school near RM12.

The 16 Havering primary schools within 2,000 m (1.24 miles) of the centre of RM12, and any up to 3,000 m (1.86 miles) away whose latest cut-off reached at least one RM12 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 RM12 and their latest cut-offs

For each school, we measured a straight line from the centre point of each of the 605 RM12 postcodes in Havering to the point the council measures to, as Havering 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.

Postcode centre points: Ordnance Survey Code-Point Open. RM12 here means its 605 postcodes inside Havering; a school’s page links to the council documents behind its figures.

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.
