About Redmile Church of England Primary School

Redmile Church of England Primary School is a small state primary in the Leicestershire local authority, sitting within the Melton borough. Among the 231 primary schools in the county, it ranks 90th overall, and within Melton itself it places 6th out of 18 schools. The top-performing peers in the local area include Swithland St Leonard's Church of England Primary School, Long Whatton Church of England Primary School and Community Centre, and Brocks Hill Primary School. With just 63 pupils on roll against a capacity of 105, the school is significantly undersubscribed in terms of space, yet it was oversubscribed for 2025/26 admissions, receiving 27 applications for 9 places — a ratio of 3:1. All 9 first-preference applicants were offered a place. The school has a Church of England religious character and is led by headteacher Neil Bardsley. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in November 2024, confirmed that standards are maintained, following a graded inspection in March 2019 that rated the school Good overall, with Good marks for early years provision, leadership and management, and the quality of education.
