Wellesbourne Community Primary School
About Wellesbourne Community Primary School
Wellesbourne Community Primary School has strong signals from parents. In the most recent admissions round for 2025/26, the school received 70 applications for 45 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.56, meaning more than one and a half families applied for every available spot. Of those 70 applications, 39 were first-preference choices, and all 39 first-preference families were offered a place. This suggests that while the school is popular enough to be oversubscribed, local families who put it first are very likely to get in. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, with nursery provision available. Headteacher Nicola Ryan leads a school that currently has 386 pupils, slightly below its capacity of 420. Over half of pupils (56%) are eligible for free school meals, which is a significant proportion and gives a clear picture of the community the school serves.
