About Roundhay St John's Church of England Primary School

Roundhay St John's Church of England Primary School is a popular choice among Leeds families, and the numbers tell a clear story. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 150 applications for just 30 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 5:1. Of those applicants, 34 put it as their first preference, and 25 first-preference offers were made. This level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, though the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage in its data. The school is a Church of England primary, with a nursery attached, and is led by headteacher Lesley Briggs. It currently has 245 pupils on roll, which is above its stated capacity of 210, another sign of its appeal. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2018, rated it Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good. An ungraded inspection later that year confirmed the school remains Good.
