When distance to nearest school is critical
Where the nearest school is less than 0.2 miles from the next nearest school and distance is either:
- Part of the school’s admissions criteria
or - Affects your child's eligibility for free school transport
we recommend that you request a definitive calculation.
To do this, please email schooladmissions@herefordshire.gov.uk and provide:
- Your full address, including postcode
- The full URL for the results of your Find my nearest school search
You can then discuss the distances and how this will impact on your application for a school place / transport.
