About Hackney New Primary School

Hackney New Primary School is one of 21 primary schools in Hackney rated Outstanding by Ofsted, placing it among the top tier of the borough’s 51 state primaries. In the local rankings, it sits just behind Simon Marks Jewish Primary School, Southwold Primary School and Grazebrook Primary School, which occupy the top three spots. The nearest Outstanding-rated alternative is Gayhurst Community School, 0.6 kilometres away. Headteacher Claire Spencer leads a mixed, state-funded primary for children aged 4 to 11, with 200 pupils on roll. The school’s most recent ungraded inspection, in December 2024, confirmed that standards are being maintained, building on its previous graded inspection when it was judged Outstanding across the board. That consistency matters in a competitive local landscape where only 41 per cent of primaries hold the top grade.
