Lift Trinity
About Lift Trinity
Lift Trinity is a state primary school in Haringey that parents clearly want to get into. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 212 applications for just 60 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.53. Of those 212 applications, 70 were first-preference choices, and 57 of those first-preference families were offered a place. That level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, and it's backed up by the school's most recent Ofsted inspection, which rated it Outstanding overall. The ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed the school remains Outstanding, and the graded inspection in 2016 had already awarded top marks for leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness. It's worth noting that the school's previous graded inspection in 2014 had rated it Requires improvement, so the turnaround has been significant.
