Gladesmore Community School: 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, 181 families put Gladesmore Community School as their first choice and 518 named it as one of their preferences, for 231 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 fallen from 287 in 2021 to 181 in 2026, while places went from 263 to 231.
17% of applications came from families living in another council area.
Across Haringey, 77% of families were offered their first-choice secondary school for 2026 entry, and 97% were offered one of the schools they named.
