For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 79 applications for just 49 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.61. That means for every place available, more than one and a half families wanted it. Of those 79 applications, 48 were first-preference choices, and 48 first-preference offers were made, suggesting that for most families who put it top of their list, it worked out. The school is led by headteacher Michael Mellin and caters for 432 pupils aged 3 to 11, operating slightly below its capacity of 470. It’s a mixed, non-religious state primary with nursery provision, and it holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained since its previous inspection in 2014.
