Which primary schools in Tadley have the best SATs results?
Of the 5 primary schools in Tadley with 2025 Key Stage 2 results, the highest shares of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading and maths were at The Priory Primary School (94% in reading, 88% in maths); Bramley Church of England Primary School (69% in reading, 71% in maths); and Bishopswood Junior School (65% in reading, 66% in maths). Small schools can swing a long way from one year to the next, because each pupil is a large share of the result.

Are there grammar schools in Tadley?
No. None of the state secondary schools in Tadley selects pupils by ability, so every state secondary here is comprehensive.

Do schools in Tadley have catchment areas?
Most state schools in Tadley 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 Tadley?
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.
