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 2025 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

About East Lane Primary School
East Lane Primary School is a primary school in Wembley, Brent, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 628 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. The school holds an 'Outstanding' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 88% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That is down 9.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 2% of primary schools in England.
Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 111 in reading and 110 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 28% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 71% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (162 first choices for 118 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2025 lived 0.39 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.1%. There are about 14.0 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 11% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. 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.
