About Ashleworth Church of England Primary School

Ashleworth Church of England Primary School is a small state primary in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, with just 23 pupils on roll against a capacity of 56. That means the school is running at around 41% capacity, which is notably low and reflects its rural, village setting. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 56.5%, more than double the national average for primary schools (around 23-24%) and significantly higher than the Gloucestershire average. This suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage. Despite its size, demand is strong: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 8 applications for just 2 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4:1. All 2 first-preference applicants were offered places, but the remaining 6 families would have been disappointed. This level of competition is unusual for a school this small and indicates that local parents see real value in what Ashleworth offers, even with limited capacity.
