Thrupp School
About Thrupp School
If you are looking at Thrupp School, the first thing you will notice is how strongly parents feel about it. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering the period up to September 2025, a remarkable 97% of the 91 respondents said they would recommend the school to other parents. That is an exceptionally high level of satisfaction. The detail behind that number is just as telling: 84% of parents strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 91% strongly agreed that their child feels safe. On the question of personal development, 77% strongly agreed that the school supports their child's wider growth. The school is also heavily oversubscribed. For its 20 places in the 2025/26 academic year, it received 70 applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.5 to one. Of those, 23 were first-preference applications, meaning even putting Thrupp top of your list is no guarantee of a place. This combination of parental endorsement and high demand makes it one of the most sought-after primary schools in the Stroud area.
