Dollis Primary School
About Dollis Primary School
Dollis Primary School is a popular choice among Barnet families, and the numbers tell a clear story. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 66 applications for just 29 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.28. That means more than two families applied for every spot, and only 15 of those applicants could be offered their first preference. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the high demand alone signals strong local confidence. The school is a mixed, state primary for children aged 2 to 11, with a nursery provision on site. It is non-religious and currently led by headteacher Iain Sutherland. With 410 pupils on roll against a capacity of 492, there is some room to grow, but the oversubscription suggests that for now, securing a place is competitive.
