West Winch Primary School
About West Winch Primary School
West Winch Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, 26 out of 27 places were offered to first-preference applicants, and the school was oversubscribed with 37 total applications for its 27 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.37. This strong demand is a practical signal of parent satisfaction, even though the data does not include a specific parent recommendation percentage. The school is led by headteacher Keelen Todd and serves 214 pupils aged 4 to 11, operating just below its capacity of 226. It is a mixed, non-religious state primary in the King’s Lynn and West Norfolk area of Norfolk. In its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, carried out in 2014, the school was rated Good overall, with Good marks for leadership and management. A subsequent ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed the school remains Good, a notable improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating.
