About Enfield Academy of New Waltham

Parents considering Enfield Academy of New Waltham will find a school that local families clearly want to get into. For the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 31 applications for just 13 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.38 – meaning nearly two and a half families applied for every spot. All 13 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that if you live close enough to put it top of your list, you stand a realistic chance. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in October 2023, confirmed it remains Good, and its leadership and management were also rated Good. That’s a notable improvement from its previous graded inspection back in 2014, when overall effectiveness was Requires Improvement. With 189 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, there is a little headroom, but the high demand means it pays to apply early.
