Description

The London Schools Atlas is an innovative interactive online map of London providing a uniquely detailed and comprehensive picture of London schools, current patterns of attendance and potential future demand for school places across the capital. ** **The Atlas is part of the Mayor's programme of initiatives aimed at driving up standards in education and ensuring there are enough good places for all children in the city. Covering primary and secondary provision, including academies and free schools, the London Schools Atlas for the first time uses data to illustrate current patterns of demand for school places at a pan-London level, rather than within boroughs alone. It also gives projected changes in demand from 2012/13 to 2017/18, helping users to get an indicative picture of where pressure on places might be in the future. ![](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/london-schools-atlas.png) You can use the atlas at the links below: [London Schools Atlas - homepage](http://www.london.gov.uk/london-schools-atlas) [London Schools Atlas - Primary Schools Atlas](http://www.london.gov.uk/webmaps/lsa/?Primary) [London Schools Atlas - Secondary Schools Atlas](http://www.london.gov.uk/webmaps/lsa/?Secondary) **Download the Data:** Data on projected growth in population from 2012-2017 for relevant age-groups: [Data.xls](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/london-schools-atlas-demand-data.xlsx) The files below contain the home location to school matrices used to create the catchment elements of the maps.
