Islington’s secondary schools have a lot to be proud of and consistently strive to deliver positive outcomes for every pupil in our schools. Last year, 98% of Islington Year 11 leavers moved into education, employment or training with most remaining in learning. Our ambition is for local schools to continue to improve through strong leadership, rigorous standards and creative teaching.

Don’t include private schools in your application.

You can check your home to school distance to any Islington school using your local area.

You'll find lots of useful information in our secondary school admissions guide.
