Rothwell Junior School
About Rothwell Junior School
Rothwell Junior School is a state primary for children aged 7 to 11 in North Northamptonshire, with a published capacity of 448 pupils. The school is currently led by headteacher Maria Barker and has a non-religious character. While the data does not include exact pupil numbers or a Free School Meals percentage, the fact that the school operates within a local authority containing 111 primary schools of the same type gives some context to its place in the local market. Demand signals are not explicitly provided in the admissions data, but the school’s size suggests it serves a substantial catchment. The local area has only two primary schools rated Outstanding out of 111, meaning Good-rated schools like Rothwell Junior are the norm for most families. The nearest Outstanding alternative is Havelock Infant School, 2.3 km away, which may influence choices for parents seeking a feeder pattern, though Rothwell itself covers the junior years only.
