Cubert Primary School
About Cubert Primary School
Cubert Primary School is a state primary in Cornwall that clearly appeals to local families, with 35 applications for 25 places in the 2025/26 admissions round — an oversubscription ratio of 1. 4. Of those 35 applicants, 24 put the school as their first preference, and 24 first-preference offers were made, meaning every family who wanted it most got a spot. That level of demand is a strong signal from the community, especially given the school's current Ofsted rating. There is no parent-view survey data available to back that up further, but the numbers speak for themselves: parents are actively choosing Cubert. The school is led by interim head Francesca Humberstone and serves 173 pupils against a capacity of 210, so there is some room to grow. It is a mixed, non-religious primary for ages 4 to 11, with no nursery or sixth form provision.
