Radcliffe-on-Trent Infant and Nursery 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, 54 families put Radcliffe-on-Trent Infant and Nursery School as their first choice and 83 named it as one of their preferences, for 54 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.
Demand has been fairly steady: 60 first choices in 2021, against 54 in 2026.
Across Nottinghamshire, 99% of families were offered their first-choice primary school for 2026 entry, and 100% were offered one of the schools they named.
In 2025, families in Nottinghamshire lodged 213 appeals against primary school offers; 127 reached a hearing and 23 succeeded (18.1% of those heard).
