As many as 96 per cent of Central Beds children starting school for the first time in September have been offered at place at their chosen school.
Central Beds Council allocated 2917 places at schools across the area with the vast majority getting a place at their first preference.
Councillor Mark Versallion said: “Starting school is a really important life event, so it’s fantastic news that so many children will be starting their journey through education at the schools they wanted to go to.”
