Schools in Kingsbridge
Kingsbridge is the hub of South Hams schooling, with 9 schools including 8 primaries and Kingsbridge Academy serving the South Devon peninsula. The average fill rate of 92% is one of the highest in Devon, with two schools already oversubscribed — a reflection of the area's popularity and limited capacity growth.
Five schools apply Church of England or Catholic admissions criteria. Devon County Council administers all applications, and because the catchment area covers a wide rural peninsula — including Loddiswell, Stokenham, Malborough and Aveton Gifford — transport and distance from home to school play a significant role in offers. Families in coastal villages should apply by mid-January to avoid losing distance priority.
