Very good, and the only real contest is getting a place. Nine in ten graded schools across the county are good or better. Almost one in five is outstanding. The ones that are struggling are few enough to count on two hands. The problem here is the admissions letter, not the choice of school.
Ofsted has graded 159 schools and settings across Surrey, and 147 of them are rated good or outstanding, which is roughly nine in every ten. Of those, 30 hold an outstanding grade. At the other end, 7 are rated as requiring improvement and 5 as inadequate. These counts cover the whole local authority, not only this area, so they describe the system your child is applying into rather than the three settlements specifically. A further group of settings has no published grade yet and says nothing either way about quality.
The catch sits in the admissions rules, not the inspection reports. Naming a school on a form does not secure a place, and living near one does not either. Each school sets its own oversubscription criteria, and in a county where most of the options are good, parents compete hard for the ones they have heard the most about at the school gate. Estate agents who describe a house as "in the catchment" are describing a hope, and the local authority decides whether it comes true. Check the admission arrangements and recent allocation patterns for the specific school before you let a listing do that thinking for you.
The names on the local list tell you how the area thinks of itself. West Byfleet Infant School and West Byfleet Junior School carry the village's name, and New Haw Community Junior School does the same for its side of the canal. For secondary age, Fullbrook School and Woking High School are among the schools on the surrounding list, alongside a wider spread of primaries, church schools and independents across the Woking and Chertsey side of the map. Grades for individual schools change with each inspection, so read the current report for any school on your shortlist rather than trusting the one a neighbour remembers from five years ago.
Schools are one of the area's real strengths, sitting inside a county system where good is the norm. The hard part is securing the place, which is a job for the admissions rules and not for the estate agent.
