About Falcons Primary School

Falcons Primary School in Leicester stands out sharply against the local authority average for primary schools. While the Leicester average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths (RWM) at Key Stage 2 sits at 62%, Falcons achieves a much stronger 77%. This places the school 9th out of 68 primary schools in the city, comfortably in the top 25% nationally. It is a Sikh faith school, one of a handful in the area, and its headteacher Jasbir Mann leads a school that is clearly popular with local families. The school received 36 applications for its 21 Reception places in 2025/26, an oversubscription ratio of 1.71, with every first-preference applicant offered a place. That level of demand suggests parents recognise the academic edge the school offers over the typical Leicester primary.
