About Old Stratford Primary School

Old Stratford Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 44 applications for just 13 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 3. 38, meaning more than three families applied for every spot. Of those 44 applications, 12 were first-preference choices, and 12 first-preference offers were made, indicating that almost everyone who put it as their top pick secured a place. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the high demand alone suggests strong satisfaction among those who know it. The school is a state-funded, mixed primary for children aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 176 pupils against a capacity of 210, so there is some room to grow. Headteacher Karen Morris leads a school that has clearly built a solid reputation in West Northamptonshire, and the numbers suggest it is a school that local parents actively seek out.
