Which primary schools in Hook have the best SATs results?

Are there grammar schools in Hook?

No. None of the state secondary schools in Hook selects pupils by ability, so every state secondary here is comprehensive.

Do schools in Hook have catchment areas?

Most state schools in Hook have no fixed catchment boundary. When a school is oversubscribed, Hampshire allocates places on its published criteria - usually looked-after children first, then siblings, then home-to-school distance - so the practical cut-off moves each year. Each school's page here shows an estimate of its catchment radius.

How do I apply for a school place in Hook?

Apply to Hampshire 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.
