Polruan Primary Academy's last overall grade from Ofsted was Requires Improvement, on 13 July 2022. Ofsted inspected it again on 21 January 2025 without giving an overall grade, as single-word grades ended in September 2024.
Apply through the council where you live by 15 January for a Reception place starting that September. Children start Reception in the September after their fourth birthday. You can usually list between 3 and 6 schools in order of preference, and offers are sent on 16 April, or the next working day. A place in its nursery class does not carry on into Reception, so you still need to apply.
No. Distance only counts when Polruan Primary Academy has more applicants than places. Then its admission criteria, set by its academy trust, decide who is offered a place first. Children in care or adopted from care come first by law. Most schools put brothers and sisters of current pupils next, then distance or a catchment area. How far away the last place went changes every year, depending on who applies.
Polruan Primary Academy had 21 pupils aged 3 to 11 at the latest school census. Its official capacity is 66. It is a mixed school.
