Hallsville Primary School
About Hallsville Primary School
Hallsville Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary in Newham that is currently running well above its official capacity. With 464 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420, the school is clearly in high demand locally. That demand is backed up by the admissions data for the 2025/26 intake: the school received 220 applications for just 60 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3.67 to one. Of those, 77 families put Hallsville as their first preference, and 57 were offered a place. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 42.7%, which is significantly above the national average and reflects the school’s inner-London context. The school also offers nursery provision for children from age three, so it serves families from the earliest stages of primary education.
