About James Peacock Infant and Nursery School

James Peacock Infant and Nursery School is a state primary in the Nottinghamshire local authority, serving children from age 3 to 7 in the borough of Rushcliffe. It sits within a competitive local landscape where the top-performing peers in the area are John Blow Primary School, Harworth CofE Academy, and Bunny CofE Primary School. The school is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 104 applications for 75 places, with all 75 first-preference applicants offered a spot, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 39. This level of demand suggests strong local confidence in the school. With 295 pupils on roll against a capacity of 317, there is some headroom, but the oversubscription figures indicate that families are keen to secure a place here. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is 6. 1%, well below the national average, reflecting the relatively affluent catchment. The school has nursery provision on site, making it a natural choice for families looking for continuity from early years through to Key Stage 1.
