Admissions and catchment
Reception entry · Merton council allocation figures, 2023–2026
Add a postcode to see where you would sit against past cut-offs.
Merton did not publish a usable last offer distance for this school in 2024–2026.
Why we say “Cut-off not published”
- 55 applications for 30 places in 2026 (1.8 per place).
What could change this
- We measure a straight line from your postcode centre. The council measures from your home address, sometimes along walking routes, so treat anything near the line with care.
- Cut-offs move every year with the number of applicants and siblings.
- Children with an EHC plan, looked-after children and siblings are usually offered places before distance is used.
- Past allocations never guarantee a place.
No usable distance was published, so there is nothing to draw.
