About Grange Primary School

Grange Primary School in Newham is a state primary for children aged 2 to 11, and it currently operates slightly below its capacity of 210, with 195 pupils on roll. The school serves a community with a notably high proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals, at 32.9 per cent, which is well above the national average and reflects the local demographic context. Demand for places is strong: for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 60 applications for just 18 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of over three applicants per place. Of those, 16 were first-preference applications, and 16 first-preference offers were made, indicating that nearly all families who put Grange first were successful. This level of competition suggests the school holds a solid reputation among local parents, despite not being among the highest-ranked primaries in the borough.
