About Nene Valley Primary School

Nene Valley Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 128 applications for just 45 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.84. Of those applications, 66 were first-preference choices, and all 45 places went to first-preference families. That level of demand suggests a strong reputation in the Peterborough area. While the school doesn't publish a parent-view survey score, the high application numbers speak for themselves. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 5 to 11, with no religious character, and is led by headteacher Neil Reilly. It currently has 319 pupils on roll, just above its official capacity of 315, which reinforces how sought-after it is.
