About Newland St John's Church of England Academy

Newland St John's Church of England Academy is a primary school that clearly appeals to local families. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 48 applications for just 21 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.29, meaning more than two families applied for every available spot. Every one of those 21 first-preference applicants was offered a place, which suggests that while the school is popular, those who put it as their top choice have a strong chance of getting in. The school is a Church of England state primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 219 children against a capacity of 270. Around 18% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is slightly above the national average and gives a sense of the school's intake. The headteacher is Elisabeth Brett, and the school's most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated it Good across every category, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision.
