The demand for primary school places

This guide shows the possible demand for the primary schools you’re interested in. It explains what happened to families who applied on time for the first time for Reception in September 2026.

Demand for schools can change from year to year, so this information should be used as a guide only. There is no guarantee that demand will be the same in future admissions rounds.
