About New Ash Green Primary School

New Ash Green Primary School is a mixed state primary in Sevenoaks, Kent, currently educating 385 pupils against a capacity of 420, leaving a modest buffer of 35 unfilled places. The school’s intake reflects a notably higher-than-average level of disadvantage for the area: 16.1% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a national primary average of around 23% and a Kent local authority average that tends to sit lower. Demand for places is strong — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 103 applications for 60 places, an oversubscription ratio of 1.72. Of those, 62 were first-preference applications, and 57 first-preference offers were made, meaning nearly all families who put it top got a place. This suggests a school that is popular locally but not so oversubscribed that it feels out of reach for most families in the catchment.
