About Welton Primary School
Welton Primary School is a state primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, located in the East Riding of Yorkshire. It currently has 297 pupils on roll against a total capacity of 420, meaning it is operating well below its maximum possible intake. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 10.8 per cent, which is below the national average for primary schools. Demand for places is notably strong: for the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 36 total applications for 25 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.44. All 25 first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the school is officially oversubscribed, indicating that it is a popular choice among local families. The school does not have a religious character, and there is no nursery provision or official sixth form on site.
