Schools in Crowborough

Stone and brick Victorian housing climbs Crowborough's high ridge in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the edge of Ashdown Forest, an East Sussex town of around 22,000 people sitting at the county's second-highest point.

Jarvis Brook, the valley neighbourhood to the north, and Mark Cross to the east are both widely regarded as school-competitive corners of Crowborough, drawing families seeking state primary places. St John's sits closer to the town centre. Crowborough station connects to London Bridge on the Uckfield Line in around seventy-five minutes, making the town a practical base for commuting families balancing school choice with the working week.
