About Ellison Boulters Church of England Primary School

Ellison Boulters Church of England Primary School is a state primary in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, and it’s a school that families clearly want to get into. With 284 pupils on roll against a capacity of 266, it’s technically over capacity, and the demand is borne out by the admissions data: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 78 applications for 36 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.17. All 36 first-preference applicants were offered a place, meaning that if you put it first, you had a strong chance, but the overall competition is real. The school’s intake is notably less disadvantaged than the national average: just 3.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a typical primary figure of around 23% nationally. That’s a very low proportion, and it reflects the demographic of the surrounding area. The school is a Church of England school, so faith affiliation may be a factor in admissions criteria, though the data doesn’t specify how oversubscription places are prioritised.
