About Duke of Norfolk CofE Primary School

Duke of Norfolk CofE Primary School in High Peak is a state primary with a Church of England character that currently educates 300 pupils against a capacity of 330, leaving a small buffer of unfilled places. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 17. 7%, which is notably above the national average for primary schools and suggests a catchment with above-average economic disadvantage. Demand for places is strong: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 62 applications for 31 places, with exactly 31 first-preference applications, meaning every family who put it first got a spot, but the overall oversubscription ratio of 2:1 shows it is a popular choice locally. The school offers nursery provision for children from age three, and its intake spans the full primary age range up to 11. Headteacher Sophia Barker leads a mixed-gender school that draws families from across the High Peak borough.
