About Kingfisher Hall Primary Academy

Kingfisher Hall Primary Academy is a mixed, non-religious state primary in Enfield with a current roll of 444 pupils against a capacity of 480, meaning it has some headroom but is clearly in demand. The school received 99 applications for 51 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.94 applicants per place. Of those, 49 were first-preference applications, and 49 first-preference offers were made. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 36.8%, which is significantly above the national average and suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage. The school also has a nursery provision, taking children from age three. Headteacher Gemma Vincent leads a school that, in its most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2025, was rated Good overall, with personal development judged Outstanding. The previous inspection in 2014 had rated the school Outstanding across all areas, so the current Good rating represents a change in the inspection judgement rather than a decline in provision.
