About Raysfield Primary School

Raysfield Primary School sits in South Gloucestershire, where the average Key Stage 2 attainment score across all primary schools is 61. The school’s own KS2 results aren’t included in the data here, so a direct comparison isn’t possible, but the LA average provides a useful benchmark for parents weighing up options. What is clear from the admissions picture is that Raysfield is a popular choice: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 91 applications for just 49 places, with 41 of those coming as first preferences. That oversubscription ratio of 1.86 means demand outstrips supply by nearly two to one. The school is a state primary for mixed genders, ages 2 to 11, with a non-religious character, and currently has 403 pupils on roll against a capacity of 450. With 15.1% of pupils eligible for free school meals, it sits broadly in line with national averages for a primary in this region.
