About Peter Gladwin Primary School

Peter Gladwin Primary School in Brighton and Hove is a mixed state primary for children aged 4 to 11, currently home to 201 pupils against a capacity of 218. That leaves a little breathing room, but the demand tells a different story: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 84 applications for just 22 places, with 19 of those going to first-preference families. That works out at nearly four applicants for every spot, so it is clearly a sought-after school in the area. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 21.4%, which is above the national average for primary schools and suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage. The headteacher is Vicki Strange, and the school has no religious character.
