About Kingsbury Primary School

Kingsbury Primary School is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, and it is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 61 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 03. Of those 61 applicants, 38 put Kingsbury as their first preference, and all 30 places were offered to first-preference families. This level of demand suggests strong parent confidence, though it is worth noting that the school does not have a formal parent-view survey result to back that up directly. The school is currently rated Requires Improvement by Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in June 2023, a downgrade from its previous Good rating in 2017. However, the Ofsted breakdown shows several areas still rated Good, including early years provision, personal development, and behaviour and attitudes. The headteacher is K Hanson, and the school has no religious character.
