About East Harling Primary School and Nursery

Parents considering East Harling Primary School and Nursery will find a school that local families clearly want. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 34 applications for its 21 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 1.62. Every one of the 20 families who listed it as their first preference was offered a place, which suggests that for those who prioritise the school, securing a spot is achievable. The school does not publish a formal parent satisfaction survey, but the level of demand is a practical signal of its reputation. With 209 pupils on roll against a capacity of 240, there is some room to grow, but the oversubscription shows it is already a popular choice for primary education in the Breckland area.
