Holy Family Catholic Primary School
About Holy Family Catholic Primary School
Holy Family Catholic Primary School in Runnymede is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, and it is currently running above its official capacity. With 219 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is clearly in demand, and the admission data for 2025/26 confirms that pressure. The school received 94 applications for just 30 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3. 13, and only 28 of 29 first-preference applicants secured a spot. That level of competition suggests a school that local families are actively targeting. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 8. 7%, which is notably below the national average for primary schools (typically around 23-24%), reflecting the relatively affluent catchment. The school’s Roman Catholic character will naturally shape its intake, though the admission data doesn’t specify whether faith criteria are applied. Headteacher Zelia Munnik leads a school that is comfortably full and turning away most applicants.
