About Whitley and Eggborough Community Primary School

Whitley and Eggborough Community Primary School is a mixed state primary in North Yorkshire that currently teaches 224 pupils against a capacity of 280, meaning it has room to grow. Its intake reflects a higher-than-average level of disadvantage: 20.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a national primary average of around 24% but notably above the typical North Yorkshire figure. Demand for places is strong — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 44 applications for 28 places, an oversubscription ratio of 1.57. Of those, 26 were first-preference applications, and 26 first-preference offers were made, suggesting that almost every family who wanted a place got one, but that the school is popular enough to fill quickly. The headteacher is Alison Coventry, and the school has no religious character or nursery provision.
