About Tirlebrook Primary School

Tirlebrook Primary School in Tewkesbury is a state primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, and it is currently a popular choice among local families. The school has a capacity of 210 places but currently hosts 195 pupils, leaving a small number of spare spaces. However, the demand is notably high: for the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 56 total applications for just 13 available places, making it oversubscribed with an oversubscription ratio of 4.31. All 13 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while competition is strong, securing a spot as a first choice is achievable. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 12.3%, which is slightly above the national average for primary schools, indicating a modestly higher-than-average level of socioeconomic diversity within the intake.
