About Westbrook Primary School
If you're a parent weighing up Westbrook Primary School, the first thing you'll notice is that the vast majority of families who've shared their view are firmly on board. In the most recent Parent View survey, 85% of respondents said they would recommend the school, and the feedback on day-to-day experience is particularly strong. 80% of parents strongly agreed that their child is happy here, and 70% strongly agreed that their child feels safe. The school is also clearly popular in the local area: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 132 applications for just 68 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.94. That means nearly two families applied for every spot, and 63 of those offers went to first-preference applicants. On behaviour, 50% of parents strongly agreed that the school ensures pupils are well behaved, with another 45% agreeing, and no parent disagreed. The only real note of caution came on how concerns are handled, where 10% of respondents disagreed that they are dealt with properly, though 40% strongly agreed.
