Made for parents who want to feel informed, not overwhelmed

AllSchools Pro is for parents and carers who want an easier way to see what’s around them, compare schools and prepare questions before visiting or applying.

Choosing a first school

See nearby primary schools, compare basic details and build a short-list for visits and open days.

Moving area or changing schools

Understand the school landscape in a new area so you’re not starting from scratch when you move.

Comparing options with your child

Look at schools alongside each other so you can talk through differences in a simple, visual way.

FAQ for parents & carers

Is AllSchools an official government or admissions website?
No. AllSchools is an independent website that brings school information together in one place. It does not run admissions or decide which school your child gets a place at – it is a tool to help you research and compare schools more easily.
Can AllSchools tell me which school is “best” for my child?
No website can know what is best for your child. AllSchools Pro helps you see information and compare schools, but the decision is always personal. We recommend using it alongside visits, conversations and your own judgement.
Do I need Pro to see school information?
You can explore schools on AllSchools without Pro. The Pro plan unlocks extra tools such as more powerful search, filters, exports and comparison features that can make research easier if you are looking at lots of schools.
Can I cancel once I’ve chosen a school?
Yes. You can cancel at any time from your billing portal. Many families use Pro during a key decision period (for example, when applying for primary or secondary school) and then cancel once they feel confident in their choices.
Will Pro improve my chances of getting a place at a school?
No. Pro does not change how school places are allocated. What it can do is make it easier to understand the options and feel more informed when deciding which schools to list on your application form.
Can I share information I find with friends or family?
Yes – you can share summary information, PDFs and links with family or friends when discussing school choices. Please don’t re-publish large datasets elsewhere.
