About East Park Primary School
East Park Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 147 applications for just 75 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.96. That means nearly two families applied for every available spot, and all 74 first-preference applicants were offered a place. While the school doesn't publish a formal parent recommendation percentage, this level of demand is a strong signal in itself. The school is led by headteacher Joanne Rozenbroek and serves 506 pupils aged 3 to 11 in Kingston upon Hull. It's a state primary with a non-religious character, and it also offers nursery provision, making it a natural choice for families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
Academically, East Park performs well above the local average. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 76% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to a local authority average of just 65%. That puts the school 17th out of 69 primary schools in Hull, placing it in the top 25% nationally. Results are particularly strong in reading, where 97% of pupils met the expected standard and 50% achieved a higher standard. Maths and writing also performed well, with 90% and 79% reaching the expected level respectively. In its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, the school was rated Good overall, with Outstanding marks for personal development, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management. The early years provision and quality of education were both rated Good.
The school offers a solid range of facilities, including playing fields, a sports hall, an ICT suite, music rooms, and a forest school. Sports on offer include gymnastics, athletics, rounders, football and tennis, and there are clubs for drama, choir, gardening and film. For families with children who have additional needs, the school provides support for a wide range of SEND categories, including autistic spectrum disorder, speech and language needs, and physical disabilities. With a low percentage of pupils eligible for free school meals at 4.9%, the school draws from a relatively advantaged catchment. East Park is a good fit for families who want a well-regarded, oversubscribed primary with strong academic outcomes and a broad extracurricular offer, all within a supportive and well-led environment.
