Admissions

Can I get my child into this school?

We have no published last-distance figure for this school, so we cannot say how close you would have needed to live last year. Places may be given on other criteria, such as faith, selection or siblings: check the school's admissions policy. We do not draw catchment maps.

This school is in Cambridgeshire. You apply through the education LA where you live, even if that is a different council.

Applications and offers

Primary · Reception · 2026/27

46places offered

71 applications named this school. 44 put it first.

Offers by preference

1st preference: 44 offers from 44 applications
2nd preference: 2 offers from 23 applications
3rd preference: 0 offers from 4 applications

Each child gets one offer: the highest preference with a place for them. Lower-preference applicants often got a higher choice elsewhere.

Published preference and offer counts from national offer day. Not a prediction of whether you will get a place.

DfE did not publish reading, writing or maths progress for 2023/24 or 2024/25. These year groups had no KS1 assessments (cancelled in 2020 and 2021), so progress could not be calculated. Attainment figures above are still published.
