About Longlevens Infant School

Longlevens Infant School is a state primary in Gloucester that currently educates 335 children, operating just below its official capacity of 360 places. The school serves a relatively affluent intake, with just 7.2% of pupils eligible for free school meals — significantly lower than the national primary average of around 23%. Demand for places is notably high: for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 254 applications for 120 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.12. Of those applicants, 104 listed Longlevens as their first preference, and 102 of those were offered a place. This means that while nearly all first-preference families secured a spot, the school is clearly a popular choice in the Gloucestershire area, and parents considering it should be aware that competition for places is real. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and caters for children aged 4 to 7, with nursery provision also available on site.
