About Hart Primary School

Hart Primary School is a small state primary in Hartlepool, currently home to 108 pupils against a capacity of 120, so it is running just below its maximum. The school serves a notably less deprived intake than the national average, with just 5.8% of pupils eligible for free school meals, compared with a typical primary figure of around 23% nationally. Demand for places is extremely high: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 56 applications for just 15 places, an oversubscription ratio of 3.73 to one. Of those 56 applicants, only 16 put Hart as their first preference, meaning that almost all first-preference families secured a spot, but competition from outside the immediate catchment is fierce. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and has a nursery provision for children from age three, making it a natural feeder for local families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
