Most applied-for Lambeth primary schools

For 2026 entry, Streatham Wells Primary had the most applications for each Reception place: 6.5 applications per place. That is its 195 applications for 2026 entry, divided by its 30 Reception places that year.

Applications count every family that named the school as any of their six preferences, so one child counts at several schools. A high number shows a school is popular; it doesn’t say how far away places were offered. For that, see each school’s cut-offs.

Not ranked: Henry Cavendish Primary School. Our figures cover only part of the intake there (for example one class), but applications are for the whole school, so a per-place figure would mislead.
