About St John's Primary School

St John’s Primary School in Ealing is a state primary for children aged 3 to 11, currently home to 476 pupils against a total capacity of 730. That leaves a fair amount of physical room, but the school is clearly in high demand: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 201 applications for just 60 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3.35 to one. Only 47 of those offers went to first-preference families, despite 57 first-preference applications being submitted. The pupil body is notably diverse in socioeconomic terms, with 35.5 per cent of children eligible for free school meals — well above the national primary average of around 23 per cent. That context makes the school’s performance all the more striking. It is one of only 14 primary schools in Ealing rated Outstanding by Ofsted, and the nearest other Outstanding option, Oaklands Primary School, sits 0.9 kilometres away.
