About St Andrew's Primary School

St Andrew's Primary School is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11 in Mid Devon, and it is currently oversubscribed. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 73 applications for 54 places, with 53 of those coming as first preferences, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.35. That demand makes sense given the school's size: it has 394 pupils on roll against a capacity of 345, meaning it is operating well above its official limit. The intake is notably diverse in socioeconomic terms, with 23.4% of pupils eligible for free school meals, which is higher than the national average for primary schools and suggests the school serves a broad cross-section of the local community. The school has no religious character and is led by headteacher Steph Pinniger.
