Frequently asked questions
How many schools are there in Hereford?
The Department for Education's official Get Information about Schools register lists 64 open schools with a Hereford address (as of 5 June 2026), including 42 primary and 8 secondary schools. Schools open, close and convert over time, so always check the official record for the latest position.
Does living in Hereford guarantee a place at these schools?
No. Each school's admissions are governed by its own policy and the local authority's coordinated process. Distance is often a tie-breaker behind criteria like siblings, faith and catchment, so being nearby helps but never guarantees a place. Always check the school's current admissions policy and last year's cut-off distance.
Where does this list come from?
Every school on this page comes from the Department for Education's official Get Information about Schools register, retrieved on 5 June 2026. Each name links to the school's official record, which is the place to verify details before relying on them.
How do I check the distance from a home to a school in Hereford?
Use our free Find Schools Near a Postcode tool to see every school within a chosen radius of a postcode, or the School Distance Calculator to measure a specific home-to-school distance. Both use straight-line distance, which is a planning aid — local authorities may measure differently for admissions.
