Admittedly this is on my mind because my youngest starts next year but thought these links & info might be helpful some other parents in Cambridge.
Feel free to use this thread to ask questions about primary schools, application process etc if you need to.
Deadline is 15th January 2017

From council website :
Reception 2017
If your child was born between 1 September 2012 and 31 August 2013, they are due to transfer to primary school in September 2017 and you must have applied for a school place by 15 January 2017. Please note there is no automatic transfer from nursery to Reception. Applications must be made in all cases.
Read our guide: First Steps: How to apply for a primary school place (pdf, 4.5mb).
Please note that 2 new schools are opening for September 2017:
Trumpington Primary School**
Pathfinder School
**If you wish to apply for this school and any of your other preferred schools, you will need to apply using a paper application form, which will be published online from 16 November 2016.
