About Henry Bradley Infant School

Henry Bradley Infant School is clearly a popular choice among local families, with 69 applications for just 48 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.44. Every one of those 48 first-preference applicants was offered a place, which suggests that while the school is in demand, it is not impossible to get into if you live nearby. The school’s parent-view data is not available in this dataset, but the high number of first-preference applications relative to total places is a strong signal that families who know the school rate it highly. With 193 pupils on roll against a capacity of 180, the school is operating slightly above its official number, which often indicates a school that local parents trust and want their children to attend.
