About Kings Langley Primary School

Kings Langley Primary School is a mixed state primary in Dacorum, Hertfordshire, currently educating 439 pupils against a capacity of 451, so it is running very close to full. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 9. 5%, which is below the national average and suggests a relatively affluent intake. Demand is strong: for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 134 applications for just 53 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 53. Of those, 48 were first-preference applications, and the school made 48 first-preference offers, meaning every family who put it first got a place, but competition for remaining places is fierce. The school does not have a religious character, so admissions are not faith-based. It also offers nursery provision for children from age three, which can be a practical advantage for local families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
