About Haxey Cofe Primary Academy
Haxey CofE Primary Academy is a popular choice among local families, with 26 first-preference offers made for its 26 places in the 2025/26 admissions round — meaning every family who put it first got a spot. However, the school received 45 total applications, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 1.73, so competition for those places is real. The parent-view data isn't available here, but the strong first-preference numbers suggest a solid local reputation. The school is a Church of England state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, with 170 children on roll against a capacity of 210, so there is some room to grow. Headteacher Daniel Callaghan leads a school that has clearly turned a corner: its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2016 rated it Good overall, with Good for leadership, management, and early years provision, and a 2019 ungraded inspection confirmed it remains Good. That's a significant improvement from its previous 2014 inspection, which rated the school Requires Improvement.
