About Bletchingley Village Primary School

Ofsted's Parent View survey, based on 76 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, shows that 79% of parents would recommend Bletchingley Village Primary School. That's a solid majority, though it leaves more than one in five parents who wouldn't. The school is clearly popular in the local area: for the 2025/26 reception intake, it received 68 applications for just 30 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2. 27. All 29 first-preference applicants were offered a place, meaning that if you put it first, you had a very good chance of getting in. On individual survey questions, parents were most positive about their child's happiness and safety, with 90% agreeing or strongly agreeing that their child is happy, and 93% agreeing or strongly agreeing that their child feels safe. The weakest area was wider personal development, where 24% of parents disagreed that the school supports it, and only 20% strongly agreed.
