Hollesley Primary School
About Hollesley Primary School
Hollesley Primary School is a small state primary in East Suffolk with a published capacity of 105 pupils, serving children aged 3 to 11. The school includes a nursery provision, which means it takes children from the earliest primary stage. While the data does not give a current pupil count or free school meals percentage, the school’s size places it among the smaller primaries in the Suffolk local authority, which has 253 primary schools in total. The admission information does not indicate oversubscription, suggesting the school is not under significant demand pressure from local families. This could reflect the rural setting of Hollesley village, where alternative options may be limited or where the school’s recent Ofsted rating has affected its appeal. The headteacher is Sarah Wood, and the school is mixed and non-religious, with no boarding or sixth form provision.
