Beaupre Community Primary School
About Beaupre Community Primary School
Beaupre Community Primary School is a smaller-than-average state primary in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, currently teaching 153 pupils against a capacity of 210. That leaves a fair amount of physical headroom, but the school is clearly in demand: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 21 applications for just 16 places, with all 16 first-preference families offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1. 31 suggests a school that local families are actively choosing, even if it isn’t bursting at the seams. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 37. 9%, which is significantly higher than the national primary average of around 23%, indicating a catchment with above-average levels of disadvantage. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and serves children from ages 4 to 11, with no nursery or sixth form provision. Headteacher Michelle Munday leads a team that has clearly steadied the ship since the school’s previous Ofsted rating of Requires Improvement in 2017.
