Figures released by the Pan London Admission Board, responsible for the coordination of school admissions across local authorities in London, have again proved positive for parents, pupils, and education professionals in Hounslow.

They revealed:

  • 91.04% received one of their top three preferences – up 2% on 2024
  • 96.01% received one of their top six preferences
  • 71.29% received their first preference – a rise of 4% on 2024

All parents who applied on time were sent an email with the outcome of the application during the evening of 3 March 2024 (after 5 pm). They will need to respond to their child’s offer using the online EAdmissions portal by 17 March 2025. After this date it will not be possible to do this online as the portal will close. 

Parents can contact Hounslow School Admissions team at admissions@hounslow.gov.uk for more information. 

Those who have not been offered their first preference school will also receive a letter posted on 3 March 2025 providing more information about the process and what to do next.

Councillor Sami Chaudhary, Cabinet Member for Education, Children, Skills and Employment, said:

In Hounslow, we are naturally proud that all secondary schools are recognised by Ofsted as either ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’ so I am thrilled for the families and students who have secured placements in their preferred school this September.

Our schools continue to be something to be proud of, providing a solid, sought after experience for children across the borough.
