Hall School: heavily oversubscribed at 110% capacity

Hall School has a published admission number of 90 places. 99 pupils were enrolled in the most recent data, giving a fill rate of 110%. At 110% capacity, the school is heavily oversubscribed. Norfolk allocates places using ranked criteria: looked-after children first, then siblings, then catchment distance. Living within the catchment area is a strong but not guaranteed advantage, as the last distance offered shrinks each year as applications rise.

The fill-rate figure above reflects overall demand, but the school's intake also varies by community profile. 38.8% of pupils at Hall School are eligible for free school meals, broadly in line with the national average. This reflects a mixed catchment population across Norfolk.
