About Lindridge St Lawrence CE Primary School

Lindridge St Lawrence CE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in the Malvern Hills area of Worcestershire, and it sits at the lower end of the local league table. Among the 180 primary schools in the local authority, it ranks 107th, placing it well behind top-performing peers like Inkberrow Primary School, Hanley Swan St Gabriel's with St Mary's CofE Primary School, and Malvern Wyche CofE Primary School, each of which achieved a ranking score of 86 or higher. The school is heavily oversubscribed for its 2025/26 intake, with 15 applications for just 11 places and all 10 first-preference families receiving offers, which suggests strong local demand despite the modest ranking. With only 62 pupils against a capacity of 105, the school is running well below its potential size, and 27.4 per cent of its pupils qualify for free school meals, a figure that points to a relatively high level of disadvantage in the intake.
