Firs Farm Primary School
About Firs Farm Primary School
Firs Farm Primary School in Enfield has a strong parent community, with 77% of respondents to the most recent Parent View survey saying they would recommend the school. The survey, which ran between September 2024 and September 2025 and collected 56 responses, shows particularly high satisfaction around pupil happiness and safety: 91% of parents either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and 92% felt their child is safe. The school is clearly popular locally, too. For the 2025/26 academic year, Firs Farm received 132 applications for just 49 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 2.69 applicants per place. Of those, 43 were first-preference applications, all of which received offers. This level of demand suggests a school that families in the area are actively choosing, and the positive parent feedback on communication and activities backs that up — 73% agreed the school lets them know how their child is doing, and 92% felt their child can take part in clubs and activities.
