Grammar schools in Southall
There are no grammar schools in Southall.
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 Ealing and Hounslow is not among them, so every state secondary in Southall admits without a selective test.
The nearest is The Tiffin Girls' School, about 6.4 miles away in Kingston upon Thames. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
