About Emmaville Primary School

Parents considering Emmaville Primary School will find strong reassurance in the most recent Parent View survey, where 94% of respondents said they would recommend the school. This figure comes from 95 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, giving it solid weight. The school is clearly popular locally: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 132 applications for just 59 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.24. All 50 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while the school is in demand, those who put it first have a good chance of getting in. Parents reported particularly high satisfaction on safety and happiness, with 76% strongly agreeing that their child feels safe and 73% strongly agreeing that their child is happy. The school also scored well on communication, with 65% strongly agreeing that they are made aware of what their child will learn.
