About Aldwyn Primary School

Aldwyn Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 109 applications for just 49 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.22. Every single one of those first-preference applicants was offered a place, which suggests that for families who put Aldwyn first, it tends to work out. The school has a nursery provision too, so it can take children from age three, which is a practical bonus for working parents. With a capacity of 459 and 429 pupils on roll, it’s running close to full, and the headteacher, Craig Beaty, has been at the helm through a period of steady improvement. The most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated the school Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good, and the school was noted to have remained Good since its previous graded inspection.
