About Woodsetts Primary School

Woodsetts Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary in Rotherham that currently has 218 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 210. That modest oversubscription is backed up by clear demand: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 45 applications for just 29 places, with 26 of those coming as first preferences. The oversubscription ratio sits at 1.55, meaning more than one and a half families applied for every available spot. Around 12.9% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively less disadvantaged intake than many of its local peers. The school does not have a religious character, and it offers nursery provision for children from age three. Matthew Revill is the headteacher, and the school’s most recent graded Ofsted inspection, back in 2012, rated it Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good. A subsequent ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed that the school remains Good.
