About Kingsbury Green Primary School

Kingsbury Green Primary School is a mixed, state primary in Brent, London, currently educating 573 pupils against a capacity of 626. This leaves a modest buffer of around 50 places, but the school is clearly in high demand. For the 2025/26 intake, it received 175 applications for just 65 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.69, and only 53 first-preference offers were made. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 23.2%, which is notably higher than the national primary average of around 23.8% and suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of economic disadvantage for London. The school has a nursery provision, so children can join from age three, and it is non-denominational, with no religious character. Headteacher Reena Shah leads a school that, despite its popularity, is not among the very top performers in Brent, ranking 29th out of 52 primary schools in the local authority.
