Robert Miles Infant School
About Robert Miles Infant School
Robert Miles Infant School in Rushcliffe is a state primary for children aged 4 to 7, and it is significantly undersubscribed relative to its capacity. The school has space for 180 pupils but currently teaches just 115, leaving over a third of its places unfilled. Despite this, demand for places is remarkably high: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 127 applications for just 21 places, an oversubscription ratio of over 6 to 1. All 21 first-preference applicants were offered a place, suggesting that while the school is popular among local families who list it first, many others who apply are not successful. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 23. 5%, which is notably higher than the national average for primary schools in England (around 19%), indicating a catchment with above-average levels of economic disadvantage.
