Questions about Swaffield School
How far away do you need to live to get into Swaffield School?
In the two years with a distance cut-off (2024 and 2025), it ranged from 969 m (0.60 miles) (2024) to 1,354 m (0.84 miles) (2025). In 2022, 2023 and 2026, everyone who applied was offered a place here or at a school they ranked higher. Cut-offs move each year with the number of applicants and siblings, so treat these as a guide to past years, not a promise.
Do siblings get priority at Swaffield School?
Yes. Under the 2025 admission rules, children with a brother or sister at the school get priority after looked-after and previously looked-after children, ahead of children admitted on distance. In 2025, 7 of the 30 places went to siblings. Check the school’s admission arrangements for who counts as a sibling.
Has everyone who applied to Swaffield School been offered a place in past years?
In 2022, 2023 and 2026, yes: everyone who applied to Swaffield School was offered a place here or at a school they ranked higher. In 2024 and 2025, places ran out, so not everyone was offered a place.
How many applications does Swaffield School get?
In 2026, Swaffield School received 147 applications. Families name several schools, so one child can count as an application at more than one school.
What are my chances of getting into Swaffield School?
It depends mostly on how far away you live, unless you have a sibling at Swaffield School or another priority. For a family applying on distance: living within 969 m (0.60 miles) would have got a place in all five years we have figures for, and living more than 1,354 m (0.84 miles) away, in three of them. This is what happened in past years, not a promise. Our Shortlist replays your own address against each year.
Is Swaffield School oversubscribed?
Not in 2026: everyone who applied was offered a place at Swaffield School or at a school they ranked higher. It had 147 applications for 60 places, counting every preference families named. Many of those families were offered a school they ranked higher, so more applications than places doesn’t mean places ran out.
