General information
Discover all the local schools and how they measure up.
Ealing is a suburban area of west London. The most important changes to Ealing occurred in the 19th century when the building of the Great Western Railway led to the opening of a railway station on the Broadway. In the next few decades much of Ealing was rebuilt with mostly semi-detached housing and parts of the surrounding countryside was preserved as public parks; Lammas Park, Ealing Common & Walpole Park.
During the Victorian period Ealing became a town; good roads were built and schools and public buildings erected. Ealing Broadway became a major shopping centre.
Ealing is served by Ealing Broadway station on the Great Western Main Line and the London Underground (Zone 3). It is also served by three other tube stations; North Ealing, South Ealing and Ealing Common.
