About Amesbury Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School

Amesbury Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, located in Wiltshire. With 202 pupils on roll against a capacity of 450, the school is operating well below its potential size, which is notable given the local demand. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 51 applications for 28 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.82 applicants per place; 24 of those applications were first-preference offers. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 22.8%, which is significantly above the national average for primary schools and suggests a higher-than-average level of disadvantage in the intake. The school has a Church of England religious character and is led by headteacher Rachael Rogers. Despite the oversubscription, the school’s small size relative to its capacity means it has room to grow, and the demographic profile points to a community with considerable socio-economic challenges.
