About Bozeat Community Primary School

Bozeat Community Primary School is a small village primary in North Northamptonshire that parents clearly want to get into. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 19 applications for just 12 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 58. Eleven of those applications were first-preference choices, and all 11 received offers, meaning every family who put Bozeat as their top pick got a spot. The school doesn't publish a parent-view survey, so we can't quote a recommend percentage, but the demand speaks for itself. With 118 pupils on roll against a capacity of 175, there's room to grow, yet the school is already oversubscribed — a sign that local families see something worth competing for. Headteacher Gareth Rust leads a mixed, non-denominational state primary for ages 3 to 11, with nursery provision available for the youngest children.
