Pitmaston Primary School
About Pitmaston Primary School
Pitmaston Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 154 applications for just 90 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.71. Of those, 96 families put it as their first preference, and 89 first-preference offers were made. That level of demand suggests parents who get a place tend to be very satisfied. The school’s parent-view data isn’t published here, but the sheer number of first-choice applications is a strong signal in itself. Headteacher Kate Wilcock leads a large primary of 628 pupils, running very close to its capacity of 630. The school is non-denominational, with no religious character, and serves a mixed cohort: 10.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is below the national average and points to a relatively affluent intake.
