Latest on primary school admissions.

Overall in Southwark 82.9% of this years admissions have been given their 1st choice. Last year it was 74%. In total 94.4% have been given one of their four choices. Last year it was 81.2%. Last year 474 applications were fulfilled by a non chosen school. This year 175. This is stunningly better than last year.
Please see attached.

For East Dulwich ward we have 5 of those 175 not allocated a preference:
• Rye Oak School (1)
• Gloucester Primary School (1)
• Goose Green Primary School (1)
• Grange Primary School (1)
• Peckham Park Primary School (1)
Of course, many of these parents will get a preference as things shake down as people decide not to accept an offer as they’ve made alternate arrangements.
In the mean time I’ve asked where in East Dulwich ward these applicants live.
If you’re one of these five please get in touch so I can try helping you.

I’ve had the breakdown of all 175 by postcode as follows:
Post code Area Count of Students
SE14 1
SE23 7
SE16 12
SE19 1
SE21 8
SE22 21
SE24 10
SE26 1
SE17 13
SE11 3
SE5 29
SE1 22
SE15 47
Total 175
But again during the shakedown the vast majority of these will change to a preference as per the original applicatio
