Hague Primary School

About Hague Primary School

Hague Primary School is a mixed state primary in Tower Hamlets, serving children aged 3 to 11. With 213 pupils on roll against a capacity of 228, it is running close to full, and the demand is clear: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 52 applications for just 26 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2:1. Twenty-five of those applications were first-preference offers, meaning nearly every place went to families who wanted it most. The school’s intake reflects the local area’s diversity — 28.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is significantly above the national average of around 23% and aligns with Tower Hamlets’ higher-than-average deprivation levels. The school is non-denominational and does not have a religious character, so admissions are handled by the local authority on a straightforward basis. Headteacher Judith Knappett leads a school that, while not the most academically selective, clearly serves a community that values it.
