About Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School

Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School in Hackney is a state primary that is genuinely popular with local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 44 applications for just 22 places, making it oversubscribed by a factor of two. Of those applicants, 18 put Holy Trinity as their first preference, and all 18 were offered a place. The school currently has 249 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 240, which suggests it is running at full stretch. The intake is notably diverse in socioeconomic terms: 46.4% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, a figure well above the national average for primary schools and a clear reflection of the Hackney community it serves. As a Church of England school, it has a religious character, but the admissions data shows it draws from a wide catchment. The headteacher is Rebecca Mackenzie, and the school also offers nursery provision for children aged three and above.
