About Oakham CofE Primary School

Oakham CofE Primary School is a Church of England state primary in Rutland, with a current roll of 231 pupils against a capacity of 315, meaning it operates well below its maximum. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 16. 9%, which is notably higher than the national primary average of around 23% but still indicates a significant minority of children from less advantaged backgrounds. Demand for places is strong: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 63 applications for just 34 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 85. All 34 first-preference applicants were offered a place, suggesting that while the school is popular, families who put it first are likely to secure a spot. The school is mixed-gender and serves children aged 4 to 11, with no nursery or sixth form provision.
