About Bromesberrow St Mary's Church of England Primary School

Bromesberrow St Mary's Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, including the most recent graded inspection in February 2019. The school is a small primary in the Forest of Dean, with just 58 pupils on roll, and it is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, there were 10 applications for 4 places, with all 4 first-preference families offered a spot. The school's nursery provision means children can join from age 2, and the early years provision was also rated Good in the 2019 inspection. Leadership and management were judged Good too, which gives some confidence in the school's direction under headteacher Laura Hankins. With a capacity of 56, the school is effectively full, and the oversubscription ratio of 2.5 applicants per place suggests strong local demand.
