Hummersea Primary School
About Hummersea Primary School
Hummersea Primary School is a mixed state primary in Redcar and Cleveland, serving children aged 2 to 11. With 302 pupils on roll against a capacity of 300, the school is effectively full, and demand is clear: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 30 applications for 25 places, with all 25 first-preference families offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.2 suggests a school that local families are keen to get into. The intake is notably diverse in terms of disadvantage: 45% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average and points to a school serving a community with significant economic need. The school is non-religious, with no formal religious character, and offers nursery provision for children from age 2, making it a genuine all-through primary option for families in the area.
