About Foxborough Primary School

Foxborough Primary School in Slough is a mixed, state primary for children aged 3 to 11, and it currently operates below its full capacity. With 227 pupils on roll against a school capacity of 252, there is some room for growth, though demand is clearly strong. For the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 34 applications for just 18 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.89, and all 18 first-preference applicants were offered a spot. The school serves a community with a notably high level of disadvantage: 35.7% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The headteacher is Jessica Theisinger, and the school has no religious character. It also offers nursery provision, making it a potential option for families looking for a single-site journey from early years through to Year 6.
