Norbury School: at or above its 640 place limit

Norbury School has a published admission number of 640 places. 663 pupils were enrolled in the most recent data, giving a fill rate of 104%. The school is at or above its published limit of 640 places. Harrow allocates places using ranked criteria: looked-after children first, then siblings, then catchment distance. The last-distance figure is likely to remain tight if demand holds at this level.

The fill-rate figure above reflects overall demand, but the school's intake also varies by community profile. 18.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, below the national average. The school draws primarily from a lower-deprivation part of Harrow.
