About St Lawrence CofE Aided Junior School, East Molesey
St Lawrence CofE Aided Junior School in East Molesey is a Church of England primary for children aged 7 to 11, and it appears to be a popular choice among local families. The school is oversubscribed, with 301 pupils on roll against a capacity of 360, suggesting demand is healthy. While the data doesn't include a direct parent recommendation percentage, the fact that the school is running close to capacity is a practical signal of its standing in the community. The school has held a Good rating from Ofsted since its graded inspection in 2013, and a more recent ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed that it remains Good. That’s a solid, consistent track record over a decade. Leadership and management were also rated Good in the most recent graded inspection, which gives parents confidence in the school’s direction under headteacher Grace MacLean.
