The team at Rightmove have asked us to find MNers in Great Britain to put their School Checker to the test and we know you all love a bit of property porn so we thought you’d all jump at this one - we’re specifically looking for parents (or parents to be) who have pre-school children who are starting to think about primary school for the first time - or those who are pregnant for the first time (and for whom school choice is on their radar). It doesn’t matter if you’re looking to move in the near future or not.

The team at Rightmove say “Find the right home near the right school with Rightmove’s School Checker. School Checker gives you access to admissions criteria and academic inspection reports for primary and secondary schools across Great Britain. Now on every property, School Checker lets you discover previous admissions areas and Ofsted ratings to easily compare local schools. Visit rightmove.co.uk/schools to learn more.

Once you’ve found the right home, simply click on the ‘School Checker’ tab to find the right school. Available on both desktop,mobile site and apps.”

If you’d like to take part in this (will be over the next month or so) - please add your details here.

If selected, we will email you but you’d need to visit Rightmove, choose a property and then look at the School Checker tab. Testers will be able to have a play with it. We’d then want you to add your feedback and thoughts on a thread on MN.

All selected testers who share feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice.

Thanks

See below for a note from Rightmove
"Thank you for all your feedback so far, it’s great see so many of you already using School Checker.

Rightmove’s School Checker uses data provided by FindASchool by 192.com to show successful admission areas from the previous academic year; these previous admission areas can be used to help indicate whether residents living at a certain property would have received a place at that school that year. These areas are calculated using data obtained from local authorities and individual schools regarding the furthest home to school distance of a successful applicant in previous years, and details of predefined catchment areas where applicable. This information should be used as a guide only as catchment areas can change year to year with each school having its own specifications.

Academic report information, such as Ofsted reports and ratings, are updated regularly to ensure we provide you with the most accurate, detailed information possible.

Thank you to all those who have requested to be part of the conversation and we look forward to hearing more of your thoughts once the feedback thread is live. Good luck with the prize draw!"
