Getting a place
The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

About Brookland Junior School
Brookland Junior School is a primary school in Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 323 pupils aged 7 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. 71% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 4.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.
Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 1% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 0.25 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 6.4%. There are about 20.7 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
