About Hemingford Grey Primary School

Hemingford Grey Primary School sends a strong signal to parents: in the 2025/26 admissions round, the school was oversubscribed, with 44 applications for 28 places and a ratio of 1.57 applicants per spot. All 27 first-preference applicants were offered a place, suggesting that while demand is healthy, local families who really want a spot here have a good chance of getting it. The school has held a Good rating from Ofsted across both its most recent graded inspection in 2014 and its ungraded inspection in 2024, which confirmed it remains Good. Leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness were all rated Good in the last graded visit. With 263 pupils on roll against a capacity of 315, there is some physical room to grow, and the proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 9.5%, below the national average.
