# Schools in Redbridge

68 schools with published admissions figures

"1st preferences per place" is how many families named a school first, for each place it offered, in the newest year held. It describes demand. It is not a pass rate and it does not say whether a child would be offered a place. A dash means the figure is not held.

## How the 2026 round went

Counts families, not schools. The table below cannot be added up into these figures, because a child naming three schools appears in three of its rows.

### Primary

For September 2026, 88.2% of families applying for a primary place here were offered their first choice, and 96.6% were offered one of the three schools they named.

That is 4.5 points higher than in 2016, when it was 83.7%.

The council's primary schools between them had 4,215 places for 3,417 applications. That is a total for the whole council and says nothing about any one school in it.


### Secondary

For September 2026, 68.4% of families applying for a secondary place here were offered their first choice, and 88.5% were offered one of the three schools they named.

That is much the same as in 2016, when it was 69.2%.

The council's secondary schools between them had 3,708 places for 3,422 applications. That is a total for the whole council and says nothing about any one school in it.


## If a family is refused a place

In 2026, families in Redbridge lodged 278 appeals about a school place.

216 of them were heard by a panel and 16 succeeded, which is about 7 in every 100 heard.

The other 62 did not reach a panel. Most appeals that do not are withdrawn because a place comes up first.

This is a record of decisions already made. A panel hears one case at a time and decides it on what that family sets out, so these figures do not indicate what would happen in any particular appeal.

## Schools here running specialist SEN provision

8 of this council's published schools run a SEN unit or a resourced provision: teaching for children with special educational needs, on the same site as the rest of the school.

| School | Phase | What it runs |
|---|---|---|
| [Seven Kings School, Ilford](/school/102856/seven-kings-school) | all through | Resourced provision |
| [Cranbrook Primary School, Ilford](/school/131625/cranbrook-primary-school) | primary | Resourced provision |
| [Mayespark Primary School, Ilford](/school/131304/mayespark-primary-school) | primary | Resourced provision |
| [Roding Primary School, Woodford Green](/school/102830/roding-primary-school) | primary | Resourced provision |
| [Beal High School, Ilford](/school/140575/beal-high-school) | secondary | Resourced provision |
| [Caterham High School, Ilford](/school/102849/caterham-high-school) | secondary | Resourced provision |
| [Forest Academy, Ilford](/school/137692/forest-academy) | secondary | Resourced provision |
| [Oaks Park High School, Ilford](/school/133405/oaks-park-high-school) | secondary | Resourced provision |

This says a provision exists and nothing more. Neither how many children it takes nor which kinds of need it is set up for is published for a mainstream school, and it is not a statement about how well any school supports children with SEN. Ask the school or the council. Source: Department for Education, special educational needs in England.
