Schools near SW8 and their latest cut-offs
For each school, we measured a straight line from the centre point of each of the 245 SW8 postcodes in Wandsworth to the point the council measures to, as Wandsworth 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.
