About St Michael's CofE Primary School

St Michael's CofE Primary School is a Church of England primary in Enfield that clearly commands strong local demand. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 199 applications for just 60 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.32. Of those, 76 families put it as their first preference, and all 60 first-preference offers were taken up. That level of competition suggests a school that parents in the area are actively choosing. While the school does not publish a specific parent-view recommendation percentage, the sheer volume of applications — more than three times the number of places — is a practical signal of its reputation. The school is led by headteacher Jade-Simone Bacon and has a capacity of 450 pupils, with 436 currently on roll, so it is running very close to full. It also offers nursery provision for children from age three, which may be a factor for families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
