About Woodmansey Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School

Woodmansey Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School is a small, popular primary in East Riding of Yorkshire, and the numbers tell a clear story about how local families view it. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 26 applications for just 15 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 73. Of those 26 applications, 14 were first-preference choices, and 13 of those first-preference families were offered a place. That level of demand suggests a school that local parents actively want their children to attend, even if it means competing for a spot. The school itself is compact, with 102 pupils on roll against a capacity of 115, and it offers nursery provision for children from age three. It is a Church of England school, which may appeal to families looking for a faith-based setting, though it is voluntary controlled, meaning the local authority has a significant role in admissions and governance.
