Burton Pidsea Primary School
About Burton Pidsea Primary School
Burton Pidsea Primary School is a small village school in the East Riding of Yorkshire that parents clearly want to get into. For the 2025/26 intake, the school was oversubscribed, receiving 19 applications for its 15 Reception places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.27. All 15 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while the school is popular locally, families who put it first have a strong chance of success. The school has a nursery provision, so children can start from age three. With just 82 pupils on roll against a capacity of 98, there is some room for growth, but the oversubscription figure indicates a solid local reputation. The school is mixed, non-religious, and led by headteacher Angela Wright. It offers a range of facilities including a library, playing fields, a sports hall, music rooms, an ICT suite, and an outdoor playground, plus a chapel.
