About Hemington Primary School

Every single parent who responded to the Ofsted Parent View questionnaire for Hemington Primary School said they would recommend the school to another parent, a perfect 100% recommendation rate from the 17 respondents. This strong endorsement is backed up by the school’s popularity in the local area; for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 28 applications for just 4 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 7 to 1. All four first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the numbers show that demand far outstrips supply. Parents also reported very high levels of satisfaction on specific measures: 100% agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 94% felt their child is safe. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2024 rated it Good across all four graded areas: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management.
