About Brookfield Primary Academy

Brookfield Primary Academy in Sutton is a state primary for children aged 2 to 11 that is currently running above its official capacity, with 443 pupils on roll against a published capacity of 420. The school serves a diverse intake: 14.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is a useful benchmark for parents comparing local demographics. Demand is clearly high — for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 154 applications for just 37 places, an oversubscription ratio of over 4 to 1. Of those, 31 families put it as their first preference, and all 31 received an offer. That kind of pressure suggests a school that local parents are actively choosing, and it’s worth noting that the school has nursery provision too, so families can get a foot in the door earlier.
