About this website

Terms of use

UK School Map is maintained by Mindmap Technology Limited ("we", "us"). By using this site you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

Information only

The site is provided for general information to help you research schools. It is not professional, educational or legal advice, and it is not an official source. Nothing on it is a recommendation of any school or a statement about your chances of admission.

Accuracy

We compile the information from official registers and other public sources and update it regularly. However, schools, local authorities and those sources change details such as admissions criteria, test dates, cut-off scores, contact details and inspection results, sometimes without notice. Information here may therefore be out of date, incomplete or inaccurate, and records marked unverified have not been checked against an official register. Distances and locations are approximate.

Before making any decision, including applying to a school or registering for a test, always confirm the details directly with the school, the local authority or the relevant official body. If you find something wrong, please use "Report an error" on the school's page.

Our liability

The site is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not promise that it will be accurate, complete, up to date, uninterrupted or free from errors or viruses, and we may change, suspend or withdraw any part of it at any time.

To the extent permitted by law, we exclude all conditions, warranties and other terms that might otherwise apply, and we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its content, including missed deadlines, admissions outcomes, or indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law of England and Wales, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

Other websites and data

The site links to school websites, official registers, Wikipedia and other services, and uses map data from OpenStreetMap via OpenFreeMap. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content or availability. Official school data is reused under the Open Government Licence; see About the data for sources and licences.

Some pages may show advertising. Adverts are provided by third parties, and we do not endorse the products or services they promote.

Using the site

You may use the site for personal, non-commercial research. Please do not misuse it: for example, by sending false, abusive or automated reports, by including personal details in a report, by trying to disrupt or gain unauthorised access to the site, or by scraping it in a way that places an unreasonable load on it. Reports you send are stored for review; you give us permission to use them to correct and improve the site.

Privacy

How we handle information about visitors is explained in our privacy notice.

Changes and governing law

We may update these terms from time to time; the version on this page applies whenever you use the site. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction, although if you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in your local courts.
