Help on searching for schools
Please note that some schools may appear to have the same name but are distinguished by their location. For example:
- St John's CE (VA) Primary School (Clifton)
- St John's CE (VA) Primary School (Rishworth)
Some schools also have two addresses listed against them. One will be the main school details and one will show the address of an annexe.
Please note that some schools will be listed according to their official name and may not appear as you would expect in the drop-down list. Please bear this in mind when searching for a specific school. For example:
Crossley Heath School will be listed as The Crossley Heath School
