About Bledlow Ridge School
If you are considering Bledlow Ridge School for your child, the numbers suggest it is a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school was oversubscribed, receiving 78 applications for 27 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.89. Of those applications, 32 were first-preference choices, and 23 first-preference offers were made. This level of demand is a strong signal of parent satisfaction, though it is worth noting that the school does not publish a formal parent-view survey recommendation percentage.
