About Even Swindon Primary School

Even Swindon Primary School is a large state primary in Swindon, currently educating 691 pupils against a capacity of 740, meaning it operates close to full but with a small buffer of around 50 spaces. The school serves a community with above-average economic disadvantage: 18.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a national primary average of roughly 23% and a local Swindon average that sits slightly lower. Demand is strong — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 112 applications for 89 places, with all 89 first-preference applicants offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.26 to 1 suggests a school that families actively seek out, though it is not among the most pressured in the area. The pupil body is mixed by gender, and the school offers nursery provision for children from age two, feeding into the main primary years up to 11.
