About Ugborough Primary School

Ugborough Primary School is a state primary in the South Hams area of Devon, and it’s a school that is clearly in demand. With 117 pupils on roll against a capacity of 105, the school is operating above its official limit, which is a strong signal of local popularity. That demand is backed up by the admissions data for the 2025/26 intake: the school received 28 applications for just 12 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 33, and all 12 first-preference offers were taken up. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 7. 7%, which is notably lower than the national average for primary schools, suggesting a relatively affluent intake. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and serves the 4–11 age range, with no nursery or sixth form provision.
