Read the official admission rulesStarting primary school in Lambeth 2026/27: primary school admission brochure (September 2026 intake). The school’s own published arrangements always take priority over our summary.
In 2026, the last place offered under the distance criterion went to a child living 1.55 miles away. In the three years with a distance cut-off (2023, 2025 and 2026), it ranged from 0.62 miles (2023) to 1.55 miles (2025). In 2024, everyone who applied was offered a place here or at a school they ranked higher. Cut-offs move each year with the number of applicants and siblings, so treat these as a guide to past years, not a promise.
Yes. Under the 2026 admission rules, children with a brother or sister at the school come second in the order of priority, after looked-after and previously looked-after children. In 2026, 25 of the 60 places went to siblings. Check the school’s admission arrangements for who counts as a sibling.
In 2024, yes: everyone who applied to Dunraven School was offered a place here or at a school they ranked higher. In 2023, 2025 and 2026, places ran out, so not everyone was offered a place.
In 2026, Dunraven School received 243 applications for 60 Reception places: about 4.1 applications for each place, counting all six preferences. Between 2023 and 2026, applications ranged from 243 to 335 a year. Families name several schools, so one child can count as an application at more than one school.
It depends mostly on how far away you live, unless you have a sibling at Dunraven School or another priority. For a family applying on distance: living within 0.62 miles would have got a place in all four years we have figures for, and living more than 1.55 miles away, in one of them. This is what happened in past years, not a promise. Our Shortlist replays your own address against each year.
Yes, in 2026 places ran out: the last place under the distance criterion went to a child living 1.55 miles away. It had 243 applications for 60 places, counting every preference families named.
Dunraven School has no fixed catchment area: places on distance go to the families living closest, so the cut-off moves each year. The distance cut-off was 1.55 miles in both 2025 and 2026. It depends on how many families apply and how many places go to siblings, so one year’s change doesn’t say what happens next.
