About St Augustine's Catholic Primary School
St Augustine's Catholic Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 133 applications for just 59 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 25. Of those, 77 families put it as their first preference, and 57 first-preference offers were made. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the sheer demand suggests a strong reputation in Surrey Heath. The school is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary for mixed genders aged 5 to 11, with a current roll of 432 pupils against a capacity of 420, meaning it is operating slightly above its official number. Headteacher Alison Walsh leads a school where 7. 6 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, below the national average, and the school has a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2023.
