About Lubavitch Boys' Primary School

Lubavitch Boys' Primary School is a small state primary in Hackney, London, with a distinct Orthodox Jewish character and a single-sex intake for boys aged 5 to 11. It sits within a competitive local primary landscape where the top-performing peers include Simon Marks Jewish Primary School, Southwold Primary School, and Grazebrook Primary School. The school currently ranks 49th out of 49 primary schools in the local authority, placing it in the bottom 50 nationally for its key stage 2 performance metric. Despite this ranking, the school has shown clear improvement in its most recent Ofsted inspection. After being rated Requires Improvement in 2022, it was judged Good across all assessed areas in March 2025, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. The school is led by headteacher Jonathan Kohn and has a small roll of 98 pupils against a capacity of 210, meaning there is significant room for growth.
