About St Andrew's CofE Primary Academy
St Andrew's CofE Primary Academy in East Devon is a small Church of England primary that clearly appeals to local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 22 applications for just 15 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.47. All 15 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while demand is healthy, most families who put it first do get in. The school currently has 118 pupils against a capacity of 154, so there is some room to grow. ParentView data isn't available in the most recent records, but the oversubscription figures alone indicate a solid local reputation. The school is led by headteacher Donna Butler and serves children from age 2 to 11, though it does not have a separate nursery provision. Its Church of England character is reflected in facilities like a chapel on site, alongside a sensory room, library, music rooms, and a sports hall.
