About Elangeni School

Elangeni School is a state primary for pupils aged 7 to 11 in Buckinghamshire, and it operates very close to its full capacity of 240, with 239 children on roll. That near-full intake suggests strong local demand, though the school does not appear to be oversubscribed to the point of needing formal admission criteria beyond the usual catchment. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 5.4%, which is notably low compared with the national average for primary schools, typically around 23-24%. This places Elangeni in a relatively affluent catchment, and the school’s demographic profile reflects that. The headteacher is Alex Burns, and the school has no religious character, so it draws from a broad local community rather than a faith-based one. With a gender-mixed intake and no nursery or sixth form provision, it functions as a straightforward junior school feeding into local secondary options.
