Stratton Primary School
About Stratton Primary School
Stratton Primary School is a state-funded mixed primary in Cornwall, currently teaching 367 pupils against a capacity of 420, meaning it is not yet full but clearly in demand. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 82 applications for 44 places, with all 44 first-preference offers taken up, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.86. That is a strong signal of local popularity. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 21%, which is notably higher than the national primary average of around 23% and suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage. The school has no religious character and does not offer nursery provision, so its intake begins at age 4. The headteacher is Frances Glasby, who has led the school through a significant improvement journey since its last graded inspection.
