About King's Academy Meadow Vale

King's Academy Meadow Vale is a state primary school in Bracknell Forest that, on paper, looks like a solidly above-average choice for local families. The most recent local authority data shows the average Key Stage 2 score across Bracknell Forest primary schools is 63, and while the school's own KS2 results aren't included in the available data, its Ofsted record and oversubscription figures suggest it's performing well above that benchmark. The school received 81 applications for 58 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, with 39 first-preference offers made, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.4. That level of demand indicates parents in the area see it as a strong option, even though it sits just 2 km from King's Academy Oakwood, one of only two primaries in the borough rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
