Ingham Primary School
About Ingham Primary School
Ingham Primary School is a small state primary in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, and the numbers suggest it is a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 29 applications for just 15 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.93. That means nearly two families applied for every available spot, and all 15 first-preference offers were taken up. While the school does not publish a formal parent recommendation percentage, the level of demand alone is a strong signal of satisfaction. The school is led by headteacher Keeli Hutchinson and caters to 84 pupils aged 4 to 11, with capacity for 117. It is a mixed, non-religious state school with no nursery or sixth form provision. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 11.9 per cent, which is below the national average for primary schools.
