About Pirton Hill Primary School

Pirton Hill Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 77 applications for just 36 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.14, meaning more than two families applied for every spot. Of those, 28 were first-preference applications, and 28 first-preference offers were made, suggesting that almost every family who put it as their top choice secured a place. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, this level of demand is a strong signal of community confidence. The school is led by headteacher Glenn Booth and serves 405 pupils, just shy of its 420 capacity. It is a mixed, non-religious state primary for children aged 4 to 11, and also offers nursery provision, which may appeal to families looking for a single-site journey from early years through to Year 6.
