Rawcliffe Bridge Primary 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, 6 families put Rawcliffe Bridge Primary School as their first choice and 11 named it as one of their preferences, for 6 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: 7 first choices in 2021, against 6 in 2026.
18% of applications came from families living in another council area.
Across East Riding of Yorkshire, 95% 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 East Riding of Yorkshire lodged 53 appeals against primary school offers; 35 reached a hearing and 2 succeeded (5.7% of those heard).
