About St Mary Redcliffe Church of England Primary School

St Mary Redcliffe Church of England Primary School is a popular choice among local families, with 121 applications for 48 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.52. Of those applications, 44 were first-preference choices, and the school made offers to all first-preference applicants. This level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, though it is worth noting that the school does not publish a parent-view recommendation percentage, so that particular signal is unavailable. The school is a state primary for mixed genders, ages 3 to 11, with a Church of England religious character, and it offers nursery provision. Headteacher Christina Brugger leads a school that is near capacity, with 398 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is 36.7%, which is relatively high and reflects the diverse intake of the school community.
