About Fryern Junior School
Fryern Junior School is a state primary in Eastleigh for children aged 7 to 11, and it is a school that local families clearly want to get into. With 218 pupils on roll against a capacity of 256, the school is not yet at full capacity, but its popularity is reflected in the fact that it is oversubscribed. In the most recent Ofsted inspection, which took place in 2024, the school was judged to remain Good, a rating it has held consistently across its previous graded inspection as well. The ungraded inspection confirmed that the school continues to provide a good standard of education. While the Parent View data is not included here, the oversubscription ratio alone suggests a solid reputation among local families. The school is led by headteacher Louise Piggin and serves a mixed cohort, with 20. 6% of pupils eligible for free school meals, which is slightly above the national average.
