Red Hill Field Primary School
About Red Hill Field Primary School
Red Hill Field Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 121 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4.03. That means more than four families applied for every available spot, and even among first-preference applicants, there were 31 for those 30 places, so not everyone who wanted it got in. This level of demand is a strong signal that parents in the Blaby area rate the school highly. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 262 pupils against a capacity of 315, so there is some physical room to grow. It has no nursery provision and no sixth form, focusing entirely on the primary years. The headteacher is Rachel Watts, and the school has no religious character.
