About Wigmore Primary School

Wigmore Primary School has a strong parent community, with 86% of respondents to the most recent Parent View survey saying they would recommend the school. That survey, which ran between September 2024 and September 2025, drew 44 responses, and the numbers behind that recommendation are striking. 75% of parents strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 73% strongly agreed that the school has high expectations for their child. The school is clearly popular locally: for the 2025/26 academic year, it received 20 applications for just 10 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2:1. All ten first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the overall demand means it is a school where getting a spot is competitive. Parents also feel well-informed, with 64% strongly agreeing that the school makes them aware of what their child will learn, and 59% strongly agreeing that the school lets them know how their child is doing.
