Mulgrave Primary School
About Mulgrave Primary School
Mulgrave Primary School in Greenwich is a mixed state primary for ages 2 to 11 that currently educates 351 pupils against a total capacity of 498, meaning it operates well below its maximum intake. The school serves a community with a notably high proportion of children eligible for free school meals, at 28.5 per cent — significantly above the national average for primary schools, which typically sits around 23 per cent. This context matters for parents weighing up the school's demographic profile. Despite the spare capacity, demand is strong: for the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 88 total applications for just 28 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.14. Of those, 26 were first-preference applications, and 26 first-preference offers were made, indicating that nearly every family who put it first secured a spot. The school is non-religious and has a nursery provision, so it draws from a broad local catchment.
