Schools in New Malden

Before 1965, the area formed part of Surrey.

Home to one of the largest Korean communities in Europe, New Malden occupies a compact suburban position in southwest London, straddling the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames and the London Borough of Merton. Coombe is among the most sought-after pockets for school catchments on this stretch of the South Western corridor, while New Malden's tree-lined residential streets draw families competing for primary places across both boroughs. South Western Main Line services reach London Waterloo in around twenty minutes from New Malden station, with Malden Manor completing the residential spread to the south.
