THE SCHOOL RUN7 OUTSTANDING

Outstanding schools in Reading

Reading has 7 schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The catch is that a rating says nothing about your odds of a place: a school running full admits on distance, so the question becomes what homes near it cost. Below, each school with how full it runs (DfE capacity and pupil numbers) and the median sold price in its postcode area (HM Land Registry).

100% of Reading's Outstanding schools run at 98% capacity or more · cheapest way in: RG1 at a £300,000 median.

Fullness is pupils against reported capacity (DfE school register). Prices are median sold prices in the school's postcode area over two years, not a catchment valuation: councils publish exact last-distance-offered cutoffs, so check yours before committing to a move.
