About Longhill Primary School

Longhill Primary School sits within the Kingston upon Hull, City of local authority, where it ranks 49th out of 69 primary schools in the area. That places it in the bottom half of Hull’s state primaries, though the local picture is competitive: the nearest Outstanding-rated school is Spring Cottage Primary School, just 1.7 kilometres away, and the top-performing peers locally include Bricknell Primary, Collingwood Primary and Spring Cottage itself. Longhill is a mixed, non-religious state primary for children aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. It is significantly oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 46 applications for 32 places, all of which went to first-preference families. That level of demand suggests strong local reputation, even if its ranking doesn’t put it among the LA’s highest scorers. The school is led by headteacher Mark Batty and currently has 326 pupils on roll, exceeding its official capacity of 276.
