St Antony's Catholic Primary School
About St Antony's Catholic Primary School
Parents considering St Antony’s Catholic Primary School will be reassured by the strong vote of confidence from local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 101 applications for just 58 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.74. Of those applications, 44 were first-preference offers, meaning that nearly three-quarters of the available places went to families who had listed St Antony’s as their top choice. This level of demand suggests a school that local parents actively seek out, rather than one they fall back on. The school is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary in Redbridge, led by headteacher Chantal Pampellonne, and it currently has 435 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 420. While the most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 was an ungraded visit that confirmed the school remains Good, it’s worth noting that its previous graded inspection in 2013 also rated it Good overall, with leadership and management judged Good as well.
