About Enborne C.E. Primary School

Enborne C.E. Primary School is a small Church of England primary in West Berkshire, running very close to capacity with 82 pupils against a school capacity of 84. Its intake is notably less disadvantaged than the national picture: just 3.7% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a national primary average that typically sits around 23%. The school is clearly in demand. For the 2025/26 admissions round, it received 30 applications for just 10 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3:1. All 10 first-preference applicants were offered a place, but with 20 further applications from families who didn't get their top choice, competition is real. The school is one of only three primaries in the local authority rated Outstanding by Ofsted, out of 67 state primaries in West Berkshire, which helps explain the pressure on places.
