About Hambrook Primary School

Hambrook Primary School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 101 applications for just 30 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 3.37. Of those applicants, 48 put Hambrook as their first preference, and all 30 places went to first-preference families. This level of demand suggests a strong reputation in the community, though the school doesn't publish a parent-view survey percentage to quantify satisfaction directly. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 204 pupils against a capacity of 210, so it's running close to full. Headteacher Jennifer Rubel leads a school that, in its most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2023, was rated Good overall, with a standout Outstanding grade for behaviour and attitudes. That inspection also rated early years provision, quality of education, personal development, and leadership and management all as Good.
