Boxgrove Primary School
About Boxgrove Primary School
Boxgrove Primary School sends a strong signal to parents: in the 2025/26 admissions round, it received 98 applications for just 49 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.0. Of those, 46 families put it down as their first preference, and all 46 were offered a place. That kind of demand suggests a school that local parents trust and actively want. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in 2022, confirmed it “remains Good” – a rating it has held since its last graded inspection in 2012, when it was upgraded from Requires Improvement. With 404 pupils on roll against a capacity of 472, there is some headroom, but the oversubscription figures show that securing a place is competitive, particularly for first-preference families.
