About Beecroft Primary School
Beecroft Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary in Leeds that is currently oversubscribed by a considerable margin. For the 2025/26 intake, the school offered 45 places and received 137 applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.04. Of those, 57 families put it as their first preference, and 42 first-preference offers were made. The school has a published capacity of 308, yet currently houses 335 pupils, suggesting it is operating above its official number. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 16.5%, which is higher than the national average for primary schools of around 23% but sits below the Leeds local authority average of roughly 20%. This intake profile points to a school that draws from a relatively mixed catchment, with strong local demand that far outstrips supply.
