Grammar schools in Oxted
There are no grammar schools in Oxted.
Grammar schools are state secondaries that select by ability, usually through an 11+ test. Only 46 of the 226 local authorities in the UK still have any, and Surrey is not one of them, so every state secondary in Oxted admits without a selective test.
The nearest is Newstead Wood School, about 8.6 miles away in Bromley. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
