About Queen's Hill Primary School

Queen's Hill Primary School in South Norfolk is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, and it is currently running very close to full capacity with 623 pupils against a school capacity of 630. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 11. 5%, which is below the national average for primary schools, suggesting a relatively affluent intake compared with the wider Norfolk area. Demand for places is strong: for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 83 total applications for 56 places, with 58 of those being first-preference applications. All 56 places were offered to first-preference families, but the oversubscription ratio of 1. 48 means that for every place available, nearly one and a half families applied. This level of competition signals a school that is well-regarded locally and that parents are keen to secure a spot at, particularly given the nursery provision on site for younger children.
