About Beaumont Primary School

Beaumont Primary School is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11 in Bolton, and it is currently running slightly over its official capacity of 218 with 222 pupils on roll. That modest oversubscription makes sense given the demand: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 106 applications for just 30 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3.53 to one. Of those, 36 families put Beaumont as their first preference, and only 24 first-preference offers were made. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 10.4 per cent, which is lower than the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively advantaged intake. The school has no religious character and is led by headteacher Stacey Postle. It does not offer nursery provision or a sixth form, so families typically join at Reception and leave after Year 6.
