How close do you need to live to get into schools in Camberley?

It depends on the school, and the cut-off moves every year with the number of applications. Surrey published how far the last place offered went at this school: Tomlinscote School, 2.41 km for 2026 entry. These are the authority's own figures, not fixed boundaries.

How do I apply for a school place in Camberley?

Apply to your council - Surrey or Hampshire, depending on your address - through its coordinated admissions process, even for academies and faith schools. In England the closing date is 31 October for secondary places and 15 January for primary places, in the year before your child starts. Independent schools run their own admissions, so apply to those directly.
