About Lavender Primary School

Lavender Primary School is a popular choice among local families, with 81% of parents who responded to Ofsted's Parent View survey saying they would recommend the school. That enthusiasm is reflected in the numbers: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 198 applications for just 59 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.36. Of those, 54 families put it as their first preference, and all 54 were offered a place. Parents are particularly positive about how happy their children are – 93% either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy here – and 91% felt their child is safe. The picture is slightly more mixed when it comes to handling concerns: only 38% agreed or strongly agreed that concerns are dealt with properly, while 31% disagreed or strongly disagreed. That said, the school's most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025 judged leadership and management as Outstanding, with overall effectiveness remaining Good.
