About Marsh Lane Primary School

Marsh Lane Primary School sends a strong signal to parents through its admission data: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 51 applications for just 18 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.83. All 18 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while demand is high, families who put it first have a realistic chance. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, located in North East Derbyshire within the Derbyshire local authority. With 142 pupils on roll against a capacity of 177, there is some room to grow, and the proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 18.3 per cent. The headteacher is Alex Bramley, and the school has no religious character. ParentView data is not available in this dataset, but the combination of oversubscription and a Good Ofsted rating from 2023 suggests a solid local reputation.
