Honeywell Infant School is the hardest primary school in our area for children to get into, statistics available from the Department for Education have revealed.

The official government data shows of the 439 applications that named Honeywell as a preference, only 89 were offered places, and just half of its first choice applicants received places at the school.

With this Saturday the deadline for primary school applications for children who will start in September, Nub News has compiled a full list of subscription rates to primary schools in and around Clapham.

The lower the percentage of first preferences, the harder the school is for pupils to receive a place at.
