About Elm Road Primary School

Elm Road Primary School is a popular choice among local families, with 24 out of 26 places offered to first-preference applicants in the 2025/26 admissions round. The school received 55 applications for those places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 12, meaning more than two families applied for every spot. This level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, and while no parent-view survey data is available in the most recent records, the high first-preference rate is a practical signal of satisfaction. The school is a state-funded, mixed primary for ages 4 to 11, with a current roll of 206 pupils against a capacity of 210, so it is running nearly full. Headteacher Stuart Mills leads a school that has seen clear improvement under his leadership, as reflected in its most recent Ofsted inspection.
