Primary schools near SW12

In 2026, 147 of the 157 SW12 postcodes in Lambeth were inside the cut-off at Dunraven School, more than at any other school near SW12.

The 17 Lambeth primary schools within 2,000 m (1.24 miles) of the centre of SW12, and any up to 3,000 m (1.86 miles) away whose latest cut-off reached at least one SW12 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 SW12 and their latest cut-offs

For each school, we measured a straight line from the centre point of each of the 157 SW12 postcodes in Lambeth to the point the council measures to, as Lambeth 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.

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.
