Grammar schools in Caterham
There are no grammar schools in Caterham.
Grammar schools are state secondaries that select by ability, usually through an 11+ test. Only 47 of the 226 local authorities in the UK still have any, and Surrey is not one of them, so every state secondary in Caterham admits without a selective test.
The nearest is Wallington High School for Girls, about 5.3 miles away in Sutton. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
