Admissions

Distances are in miles (mi), as in the map app. PAN is the published admission number. Bands and admission groups have separate criteria; school-wide places, applications and offers are not counts for each band. Past offers are a guide, not a promise of a place.

Distance criteria rank applicants by home-to-school distance measured to the school's main entrance, with one nodal-point exception (James Wolfe School, below); the booklets give the last offer in km (secondary) and m (primary). Where a school admits to split sites (Heronsgate, Invicta, Plumcroft primary schools), distance is measured to whichever site is nearer the applicant's home. James Wolfe School measures "using the main entrance to the former Greenwich Town Hall, Meridian House, Royal Hill (SE10)" rather than either of its two school sites -- a genuine nodal point (Royal Greenwich Determined Admission Arrangements 2025/26, section 2.5.3). Four secondary academies (Harris Academy Greenwich, Leigh Academy Blackheath, Leigh Halley Academy (formerly The Halley Academy), Leigh Stationers' Academy (formerly Stationers' Crown Woods Academy)) use ability banding from a Year 6 test, with distance used only to rank within each band. St Thomas More Catholic Comprehensive School and St Ursula's Convent School "do not offer places based on home to school distance" at all (Royal Greenwich secondary school offers map page) -- their published booklet profiles show no applications/distance figures.

From the Primary Schools in Royal Greenwich 2027/28 booklet, whose per-school table is headed "for entry 2027" (the round being applied for). The distance is an outcome, so it is the most recent completed round: September 2026 entry.
