About Milverton Community Primary School and Pre-School

Milverton Community Primary School and Pre-School is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, located in the Somerset local authority. The school currently has 185 pupils on roll, operating below its capacity of 210 places. Its intake is notably less diverse in terms of economic disadvantage than the national picture: just 7% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a typical primary average of around 23% nationally. Demand for places is strong. For the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 42 applications for 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 4. Of those, 31 were first-preference applications, and 30 first-preference offers were made. This suggests a popular local option that families are actively choosing, though not every first-preference applicant secures a spot.
