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.
