About Eastnor Parochial Primary School

Parents considering Eastnor Parochial Primary School will find strong signals that it is a popular choice locally. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 44 applications for just 15 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.93. Of those 44 applications, 18 were first-preference choices, and all 15 places were offered to first-preference families. That level of demand suggests the school has a solid reputation among Herefordshire parents. The school is a Church of England primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 99 pupils against a capacity of 100. Headteacher Nicola Driscoll leads a small, close-knit setting where just 6.1 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well below the national average. The school does not have a nursery or sixth form, and it is a state-funded day school with no boarding provision.
