About St George's CofE Primary School

St George's CofE Primary School in Worcester is a smaller-than-average Church of England primary, with 170 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210. That leaves around a fifth of places empty, which is unusual for a popular state school. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 20%, notably higher than the national average of around 23% but still significant for a school in a relatively affluent area. Demand, however, tells a different story: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 35 applications for just 10 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3.5 to one. All 10 first-preference applicants were offered a place, suggesting that while the school is oversubscribed overall, it remains a realistic choice for local families who put it first. The headteacher is Louise Norris, and the school serves children aged 4 to 11 in a mixed-gender, state-funded setting.
