Lane Green First School
About Lane Green First School
Ofsted's Parent View responses for Lane Green First School, collected between September 2024 and September 2025, show that 63% of the 27 parents who responded would recommend the school to other families. That's a solid majority, though it's worth noting that 37% said they would not. Looking at the detail, there are some real bright spots: 89% of parents either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and 92% felt their child is safe. Behaviour is seen positively too, with 97% agreeing the school ensures good conduct. However, the picture is more mixed on communication and support. Only 44% agreed that concerns are dealt with properly, and a quarter disagreed or strongly disagreed. On SEND support, the question drew no responses at all, which may reflect a small number of families with children on the SEND register. The school is clearly popular locally: for 2025/26 admissions, it received 60 applications for just 29 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.07, and 27 of the 28 first-preference families were offered a spot.
