About Kippax North Primary School

Kippax North Primary School is a state-funded mixed primary in Leeds that is significantly oversubscribed, a clear signal of its local popularity. With 237 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is operating above its official limit. The demand is striking: for 30 places in the 2025/26 intake, there were 114 total applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.8. Of those, 38 were first-preference applications, and only 30 first-preference offers were made, meaning not every family who wanted a place got one. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 10.9%, which is below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively less disadvantaged intake compared with many schools in the Leeds local authority area. The school has no religious character and offers nursery provision, catering to children from age three.
