The schools around Covent Garden are very good, and every graded one has passed. Both primaries are a short walk from most front doors. The secondary run takes longer but is still a walk. The trickier part is getting a place, because this is a district of one-bed flats where few families live, and the admissions rules don't care how close the flat is.
Ofsted has graded 25 schools in Westminster, the authority these counts cover, and all 25 are good or outstanding. Nine are outstanding and 16 good. None is rated requires improvement and none inadequate. Another 18 settings in the borough have no published grade yet, so they're left out of those counts. Having no grade yet tells you nothing about how good a school is.
Two primaries carry the load inside the district: St Clement Danes CofE Primary School and St Josephs Catholic Primary School. The Department for Transport's modelled journey times, from 2019, put the nearest primary about a five-minute walk away on average and the nearest secondary about 16 minutes on foot or 13 by public transport. Westminster City Council allocates places under its published admissions rules, and a flat round the corner from a school doesn't secure one. Both primaries are church schools, so the useful check is the admissions policy of the specific school you have in mind, read from the council's or the school's own published version. Few families live here: couples with children make up about 6% of households and lone parents about 7%. Those few families still compete for the places with everyone else in the borough.
The other names in the school register are a different kind of school. The Royal Ballet School boards its pupils here, and the Courtauld Institute of Art teaches art history at university level. Neither does much for the average seven-year-old, though both make the local education picture look impressive.
On the schools, Covent Garden does very well. The schools are strong and close, and the hard part is buying somewhere with space for the children who would go to them.
