About The Corsham Regis Primary Academy

The Corsham Regis Primary Academy is a state primary in Wiltshire that currently serves 130 pupils against a capacity of 270, meaning it is operating at less than half its potential size. This is a school with a notably high proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals, at 48. 5% — far above the national average of around 23% for primary schools. Despite the spare capacity, the school is clearly in demand: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 28 applications for just 12 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2. 33, and all 11 first-preference applicants were offered a place. This suggests that while the school is not full overall, its Reception class is a popular choice among local families. The school is non-religious and mixed, with a headteacher, Abby Symons, leading a team that has overseen a significant turnaround in recent years.
