Emmbrook Junior School
About Emmbrook Junior School
Emmbrook Junior School is a state primary for children aged 7 to 11 in Wokingham, and it is essentially full. With 258 pupils on roll against a capacity of 256, the school is operating at near-maximum occupancy, which suggests strong local demand. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 10. 9%, slightly below the national average for primary schools, reflecting the relatively affluent Wokingham area. The school is non-denominational and mixed, with Nicola York as headteacher. Its intake is drawn from the local community, and the fact that it shares a site with Emmbrook Infant School — rated Outstanding by Ofsted — means families can effectively secure a continuous primary pathway from Reception through to Year 6 without changing location. The school’s oversubscription status is not explicitly stated in the data, but the pupil-to-capacity ratio implies that securing a place may be competitive for families living outside the immediate catchment area.
