About St Dunstan's Catholic Primary School, Woking
St Dunstan's Catholic Primary School in Woking is a Roman Catholic state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, and it is operating at full capacity with 630 pupils on roll matching its 630-place school capacity. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 3. 8%, which is notably low compared with the national average and suggests a relatively affluent local intake. Demand for places is extremely high: for the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 228 applications for just 89 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2. 56. Of those, 116 were first-preference applications, and 86 first-preference offers were made, meaning many families who put it top of their list were still unsuccessful. This level of competition reflects the school's strong reputation locally and its status as one of only 33 primary schools in Surrey rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
