About Limebrook Primary School and Nursery

Limebrook Primary School and Nursery is a small state primary in Maldon, Essex, and the numbers suggest it is a school that local families are keen to get into. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 123 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4. 1. Of those applicants, 34 put it as their first preference, and 25 of those were offered a place. That level of demand is a strong signal from the parent community, though it is worth noting that the school does not publish a parent-view recommendation percentage in the data provided. With only 113 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420, the school is clearly undersubscribed in terms of its physical size, yet the oversubscription for reception places tells a different story — it is the early years entry point that is most competitive. The school has a nursery provision for children aged two and up, which may feed into that reception demand.
