About Holy Trinity Lamorbey Church of England School

Holy Trinity Lamorbey Church of England School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For entry into Reception in the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 71 applications for just 18 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.94. That means nearly four families applied for every available spot, and of those, 16 were first-preference applications. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the sheer demand suggests a strong local reputation. The school is a state primary in Bexley, with a Church of England character, and is led by headteacher Oliver Winstone. It currently has 276 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420, so there is some room for growth, but the oversubscription figures indicate that securing a place is competitive. The school also offers nursery provision for children from age three, which may give families a helpful foot in the door.
