About Wykeham Primary School

Wykeham Primary School in Brent is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 3 to 11, and it is genuinely popular with local families. The school is currently running at full capacity with 451 pupils against a capacity of 449, and the demand is clear: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 134 applications for just 60 places, with 66 of those coming as first preferences. That works out at 2.23 applications for every available spot, and 59 first-preference offers were made, meaning almost every first-choice applicant got in but competition remains stiff. The pupil body is notably diverse in terms of disadvantage: 28.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national primary average of around 24% and signals a school serving a community with above-average levels of economic need. The school has a nursery provision attached, so children can join from age 3, and it is non-denominational with no religious character.
