Eldon Primary School
About Eldon Primary School
Eldon Primary School in Enfield is a large state primary for children aged 2 to 11, but it currently operates well below its stated capacity of 1,260 pupils, with 732 on roll. This is not a sign of low demand, however. The school is oversubscribed for its 2025/26 Reception intake, receiving 114 applications for 64 places, and making 62 offers to first-preference families. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 1.78, meaning nearly two families apply for every place. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 39.1%, which is significantly above the national average and suggests the school serves a community with higher-than-average levels of economic disadvantage. Headteacher Amy Remy leads a mixed-gender, non-religious school that also offers nursery provision, making it a natural choice for local families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
