Before you rely on this list: Ofsted ratings, catchment/admissions distances and sixth form provision change often. This directory gives you names, areas and a starting point — always confirm current details on
Ofsted's own site and
Compare School Performance (GOV.UK), or with the school directly, before making a decision.
A note on scope: unlike our primary directory, this list isn't bound strictly to the HA4/HA5 postcode districts. Secondary choice for this area routinely includes two schools just outside it — Vyners School (Ickenham, UB10) and Northwood School (HA6) — both of which appear on the Ruislip Residents' Association's own list of local secondary options. Conversely, some schools that sit geographically closer on a map (Rooks Heath, Whitmore High — both HA2, and Hatch End High School, HA3, despite the name) don't come up in local parent discussion of this area, so we've left them out. This is based on community sources (the Ruislip Residents' Association, local parent forums) rather than a formal survey, and may not reflect every family's experience.
