About Netherfield Primary School

Netherfield Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary in Gedling, Nottinghamshire, and it is noticeably oversubscribed. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 82 applications for just 49 places, with 48 of those offers going to first-preference families. That works out at 1. 67 applicants for every spot, a clear signal of local demand. The school currently holds 458 pupils against a capacity of 420, meaning it is operating above its official limit. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 41. 9%, which is significantly higher than the national average for primary schools and suggests a catchment with considerable socioeconomic diversity. The school has a nursery provision for children aged two and above, and it is non-denominational, with no religious character. Jon Crone is the headteacher.
