About Avanti Meadows Primary School

Avanti Meadows Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families, with twice as many applications as places available in the 2025/26 admissions round. The school received 88 total applications for its 44 places, and 38 of those were first-preference applications, all of which resulted in offers. That oversubscription ratio of 2:1 suggests strong demand, and it’s backed up by the parent experience: while the school doesn’t publish a specific Parent View recommend percentage in this data, the combination of high first-preference conversion and oversubscription is a solid signal that families who get in tend to be pleased. The school is a state-funded primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, with nursery provision on site, and it sits in East Hertfordshire under Hertfordshire local authority. Headteacher Rhys Jones leads a school of 255 pupils, well under its capacity of 656, which leaves room for growth.
