About Rawcliffe Bridge Primary School

Rawcliffe Bridge Primary School is a small state primary in the East Riding of Yorkshire, currently home to just 39 pupils against a capacity of 98. That means the school is operating at around 40% of its potential size, which is unusually low for the area. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 31.4%, well above the national average of roughly 23%, indicating a higher-than-average level of socio-economic disadvantage among the intake. Despite the spare capacity, the school was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 admissions round, with two first-preference applications for two available places and a total of four applications overall. This suggests a small but committed local demand, likely from families within the immediate catchment. The school is mixed, non-religious, and caters for children aged three to eleven, with nursery provision available.
