Titus Salt 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, 218 families put Titus Salt School as their first choice and 756 named it as one of their preferences, for 236 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 264 in 2021 to 218 in 2026, while places went from 242 to 236.
Bradford published that the last place offered for 2026 entry went to a family 2.185 miles away. The cut-off moves every year with the number of applications.
Across Bradford, 78% of families were offered their first-choice secondary school for 2026 entry, and 94% were offered one of the schools they named.
In 2025, families in Bradford lodged 756 appeals against secondary school offers; 583 reached a hearing and 78 succeeded (13.4% of those heard).
