Hawkedon Primary School
About Hawkedon Primary School
Hawkedon Primary School sits in Wokingham, a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 attainment score sits at 70. The school itself is rated Good by Ofsted, which places it in the majority of the 55 primary schools in the area — only six of those hold the top Outstanding grade. Compared with the LA average, Hawkedon’s headline metrics don’t leap out as exceptional, but they are solidly in line with what most families in Wokingham can expect. The school is large, with 601 pupils against a capacity of 630, and it is clearly popular: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 154 applications for 82 places, an oversubscription ratio of 1.88. Of those, 71 were first-preference offers, meaning most families who wanted a place got one, but competition is real. The percentage of pupils eligible for free school meals is just 7%, well below the national average, which hints at a relatively affluent catchment.
