About Ravenshead CofE Primary School

Ravenshead CofE Primary School is a Church of England state primary in Gedling, Nottinghamshire, and it is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 90 applications for just 41 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.2. Of those 90 applications, 34 were first-preference choices, and all 34 of those first-preference families were offered a place. This suggests that while the school is oversubscribed overall, securing a spot as a first preference is a realistic prospect for families living nearby. The school has a nursery provision for children from age three, and its total capacity of 435 pupils currently accommodates 395 children, meaning there is some headroom in the numbers. With a relatively low proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals at 7.5 per cent, the intake is broadly representative of a stable, mixed community.
