About Ilchester Community School
Ilchester Community School is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 2 to 11, located in Somerset. With a school capacity of 359, its pupil count relative to that number gives a sense of scale, though exact current enrolment figures aren't provided in the data. The school's free school meals percentage isn't listed, so it's not possible to compare directly against the national average, but the local authority context shows Somerset has 219 primary schools of the same type, of which only six are rated Outstanding. Ilchester's own rating of Good places it in the solid middle tier. There's no admissions oversubscription data in the file, so the demand signal is unclear, but the school does offer nursery provision for children from age two, which may appeal to local families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6. The headteacher is Michelle Mordue, and the school has no religious character.
