About Co-op Academy Hamilton

If you’re a parent weighing up Co-op Academy Hamilton, the numbers suggest it’s a school that local families clearly want. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school was oversubscribed, with 60 applications for just 30 places — a ratio of two applicants per spot. Of those, 36 put it as their first preference, and all 30 first-preference families were offered a place, which is a strong signal that it’s a realistic and popular choice for those who prioritise it. The school is small, with 113 pupils against a capacity of 240, so there’s room to grow, but the current demand shows it punches above its weight in the local market. It’s a state primary for ages 3 to 7, so it’s an infant school, and it offers nursery provision too, which will appeal to families looking for a single, familiar setting from the earliest years.
