About Robert Piggott CofE Junior School

Robert Piggott CofE Junior School is a Church of England primary for pupils aged 7 to 11, currently home to 150 children against a capacity of 196. That leaves around a quarter of places unfilled, suggesting the school is not oversubscribed and may have room for late applicants or in-year transfers. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 9. 3%, which is below the national primary average of roughly 23% and also lower than the Wokingham local authority average of around 12%, indicating a relatively affluent intake. The school’s mixed gender intake and junior-only structure mean it feeds from local infant schools, and its CofE character may appeal to families seeking a faith-based environment, though the school is not oversubscribed enough to require a formal admissions tiebreaker beyond catchment area. With no nursery or sixth form provision, it is a straightforward junior school option for families in the Wokingham area.
