About Pierrepont Gamston Primary School

Pierrepont Gamston Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 146 applications for just 38 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.84, meaning nearly four families applied for every available spot. All 38 offers went to first-preference applicants, which suggests parents who rank the school top of their list are likely to secure a place. The school is a Church of England primary in Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, with a current roll of 306 pupils against a capacity of 315, so it is running close to full. Headteacher Claire Bills leads a mixed, state-funded school for children aged 4 to 11. In its most recent ungraded Ofsted inspection in 2022, the school was judged to remain Good, a rating it has held consistently since at least its previous graded inspection in 2012, when it also received Good for overall effectiveness, leadership and management, and early years provision.
