Eastington Primary School
About Eastington Primary School
Eastington Primary School is a small state primary in Stroud, Gloucestershire, with 136 pupils against a capacity of 140, meaning it runs very close to full. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is just 4.4%, well below the national average and a clear signal that the intake is drawn from a relatively affluent catchment. Demand is strong: for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 93 applications for 21 places, an oversubscription ratio of 4.43 to one. Of those, 22 families put Eastington as their first preference, and all 21 first-preference applicants were offered a place. That level of competition suggests the school has a firm local reputation, and the fact that it fills almost entirely from first-preference families indicates it is the top choice for many in the area. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and serves ages 4 to 11, with no nursery or sixth form provision.
