About John Emmerson Batty Primary School

John Emmerson Batty Primary School is a mixed, state-funded primary in Redcar and Cleveland, with a current roll of 183 pupils against a capacity of 210, meaning it has some room to grow. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 28.2%, which is notably above the national average for primary schools and reflects the local demographic context. Demand for places is strong: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 29 applications for just 12 places, with all 12 first-preference applicants offered a spot, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.42. This suggests the school is a popular choice among local families, even though it isn't the most oversubscribed in the area. The school serves children aged 3 to 11 and includes a nursery provision, with no religious character attached. Headteacher Stephen Harvey leads a school that has maintained a consistent Good rating from Ofsted across its two most recent inspections, the latest being an ungraded visit in 2022 that confirmed the school remains Good.
