About Singlewell Primary School

Singlewell Primary School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 143 applications for just 60 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.38. Of those, 61 families put it down as their first preference, and 59 first-preference offers were made. That level of demand suggests parents who get a place tend to be pleased with what the school offers. While the Department for Education’s Parent View data isn’t included here, the sheer volume of applications — more than double the available spots — is a strong signal in itself. The school is a state primary for mixed genders, ages 5 to 11, and sits in Gravesham, Kent. It has a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has held consistently across its two most recent inspections, the latest of which took place in 2023.
