St Germans Primary School

About St Germans Primary School

St Germans Primary School is a small state primary in Cornwall with a current roll of just 55 pupils against a capacity of 119, meaning it is running at less than half its potential size. Despite this, the school was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 academic year, receiving 12 applications for just 6 places, with all 6 first-preference families offered a spot. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 2:1, suggesting strong local demand for a school that is not filling its physical capacity. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 15. 7%, which is slightly above the national average for primary schools and indicates a moderate level of disadvantage in the intake. The school serves children from age 3, with a nursery provision on site, and is non-denominational. Headteacher Carly Passco leads a mixed-gender school in a rural Cornish setting, and the parent view survey, based on 16 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, shows 81% of parents would recommend the school to others.
