St Mary's CofE Nursery and Primary School: Reception applications, places and last distance offered The last distance offered is for the group that got the last places. “No cut-off” means every applicant was offered a place at the school or at a school they ranked higher, so places never ran out on distance.

Admission criteria at St Mary's CofE Nursery and Primary School

If more children apply than there are places, the 2026 admission rules offer places in this order:

  1. Foundation places (up to 20): children of parents active in the life and worship of St Mary's, All Saints' or St Margaret's Putney, or another Christian church.
  2. Open places (up to 10): children with a brother or sister in the school (Reception to Year 6) on the date of admission.
  3. Open places: other children, by straight-line distance from home to the central point of the school site.

Read the official rules: St Mary's Church of England Primary School, Putney: Admissions Policy, Reception Class Entry (2027-28). The school’s own published arrangements always take priority over our summary.

Less predictable

The distance cut-off has moved a lot from year to year (between 290 m and 912 m, or 0.18 and 0.57 miles), and the share of places going to siblings has swung (5 of 30 places in 2024, 14 of 30 in 2025). Treat past cut-offs here with extra caution.

Things to know before you apply for September 2027

  • The distance cut-off was 311 m (0.19 miles) in both 2025 and 2026.
  • Voluntary aided Church of England school: 20 Foundation places for children whose parent is active in the life and worship of a Christian church for two years (worship at least twice a month plus a church role; the school's supplementary form is needed) and 10 Open places for everyone else.
  • In Open places, siblings rank above exceptional medical or social need.
  • The current policy also gives priority in Open places, ahead of distance, to children of qualified teachers or teaching assistants who have worked at the school for more than two years (one place per year group).
  • Unfilled Foundation places become Open places, and the reverse.
  • Children with an education, health and care plan (EHCP) naming the school are admitted first.
