This page states what happened. It publishes no score, no ranking and no prediction, and nothing here says whether a particular child would be offered a place.

Figures current as of 5 September 2026, the day we last retrieved a source behind this page.

## How many families applied

In the 2025 intake, 160 families named this school as their first preference, and it made 176 offers.

That is 0.91 first preferences per place offered, at Year 7. This describes demand. It is not a pass rate and not a prediction.

Little change. Across the 5 most recent years held, first preferences per place averaged 1.01 in 2021–2022 and 1.02 in 2024–2025.

## How the last place was given out


## How the places were shared out

2026 intake, year_7: 180 children accounted for. These are the council's own names for its rules and cannot be compared with another council's.

| Rule | Children admitted |
|---|---:|
| Attends a feeder primary | 81 |
| Sibling will be attending the school in September | 51 |
| Last category, all other applications | 27 |
| Catchment | 17 |
| Pupils with an Education Health and Care Plan | 4 |

## Catchment area

Sheffield publishes an admission area for this school.

Living inside a published area is not an offer of a place. Councils use these areas in different ways: some to decide who gets a place when a school is full, some only to decide who gets free school transport. The shape is drawn to about 20 metres, so it cannot answer a question about a single house.
