About Ashford Park Primary School

Ashford Park Primary School is a large state primary in Spelthorne, Surrey, currently operating very close to its full capacity of 655 pupils with 646 on roll. The school serves a notably diverse intake in terms of economic background: 24.9% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is significantly above the national average for primary schools and suggests a catchment that includes families facing financial pressures. Demand for places is extremely high — for the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 224 applications for just 90 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.49. Of those applicants, 85 put Ashford Park as their first preference, and 74 of those were offered a place, meaning nearly one in eight first-preference families were disappointed. This level of competition signals strong local confidence in the school, particularly given that the nearest Outstanding-rated alternative, St Michael Catholic Primary School & Nursery, is only 1.6 kilometres away.
