Booker Hill Primary School & Nursery: admissions history
How many families applied, how many places there were, and how far the last place went - every year we hold.
For September 2026 entry, 30 families put Booker Hill Primary School & Nursery as their first choice and 78 named it as one of their preferences, for 30 places offered. It had fewer first-choice applications than places, so in 2026 a family who put it first could expect an offer unless the school's other criteria ruled them out.
First-choice demand has risen from 24 in 2021 to 30 in 2026, while places went from 26 to 30.
Across Buckinghamshire, 92% of families were offered their first-choice primary school for 2026 entry, and 99% were offered one of the schools they named.
In 2025, families in Buckinghamshire lodged 107 appeals against primary school offers; 75 reached a hearing and 6 succeeded (8% of those heard).
