Schools in Shropshire

143 schools with published admissions figures

Page 2 of 3. Showing 60 of 143 schools.

The newest figures for each school. "1st prefs per place" is how many families put the school first, for each place it gave out. It measures demand, not whether a child would get a place. A dash means the figure is not available.

How the 2026 round went in Shropshire

Primary

For September 2026, 97.4% of families applying for a primary place here were offered their first choice, and 99.8% were offered one of the three schools they named.

That is 3.6 points higher than in 2016, when it was 93.8%.

The council's primary schools between them had 3,420 places for 2,582 applications. That is a total for the whole council and says nothing about any one school in it.

Secondary

For September 2026, 91.0% of families applying for a secondary place here were offered their first choice, and 98.3% were offered one of the three schools they named.

That is 2.4 points lower than in 2016, when it was 93.4%.

The council's secondary schools between them had 3,213 places for 2,845 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 Shropshire lodged 142 appeals about a school place.

74 of them were heard by a panel and 23 succeeded, which is about 31 in every 100 heard.

The other 68 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 Most appeals that do not are withdrawn because a place comes up first.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.

Source: Department for Education, admission appeals in England, reporting year 2026. Counts every school in this council area. The share that succeeded is taken over appeals heard by a panel, not over appeals lodged.
