About Claycots School

Claycots School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 119 applications for just 67 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.78. Of those, 61 families put it down as their first preference, and all 61 were offered a place. That level of demand suggests parents in Slough see it as a strong option. The school is led by headteacher Sarah Mijatovich and is a large state primary for mixed genders, with a nursery on site for children from age three. It has a Good rating from Ofsted, which it has held across its last two inspections. The most recent was an ungraded visit in July 2024 that confirmed the school remains Good, and the previous graded inspection in November 2018 also rated overall effectiveness as Good, with leadership and management, early years provision, and quality of education all judged at the same level.
