About St Peter's Church of England Primary School Wymondham
St Peter's Church of England Primary School Wymondham is a small state primary in Melton, and the parent experience here is overwhelmingly positive. In the most recent Parent View survey, 90% of respondents said they would recommend the school to other parents, with no one saying they wouldn't. Every single parent agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy and feels safe at school. The school is clearly popular locally: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 14 applications for just 6 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 33. All six first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the numbers show demand significantly outstrips supply.

The only note of caution is around communication of concerns, where 20% of parents disagreed that concerns are dealt with properly, though 70% agreed or strongly agreed.
