About Hedon Primary School

Hedon Primary School sits within the East Riding of Yorkshire local authority, a large area with 123 primary schools in total. Among these, only five have achieved an Outstanding rating from Ofsted, placing the school in a competitive local landscape. The top-performing peers in the authority include Skidby Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, St Martin's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School in Fangfoss, and Walkington Primary School. Hedon itself is a smaller-than-average primary, with 139 pupils against a capacity of 210, and it serves a community where 25.9 per cent of children are eligible for free school meals. The school is oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 31 applications for 14 places, with all first-preference families offered a spot. This suggests strong local demand despite the school's current Ofsted rating, which may reflect its role as a valued local option for families in and around Hedon.
