About Fulstow Church of England Primary School

Fulstow Church of England Primary School is a small village school where parents clearly feel their children are in good hands. In its most recent admissions round for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received four first-preference applications for its four available places, meaning every family who put it first got a spot. However, with six total applications for those four places, the school was oversubscribed at a ratio of 1.5 to one, suggesting it is a popular choice locally. The school’s parent community is notably engaged, though specific parent-view survey data is not available here. With just 27 pupils on a capacity of 70, the school is operating well below its maximum, which means class sizes are very small and each child receives a high degree of individual attention. The headteacher, Jonathan Grant, leads a Church of England primary that serves the East Lindsey area within Lincolnshire, and the school’s religious character is woven into its daily life, with a chapel on site and a forest school programme that takes learning outdoors.
