Montagu Academy

About Montagu Academy

Montagu Academy sits in the Doncaster local authority, where it ranks 6th out of 87 primary schools on the key measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. That puts it comfortably in the top 10% of primaries locally, and it's the highest-ranked school in its immediate peer group that doesn't have a religious character. The three schools above it in the Doncaster rankings are Crookesbroom Primary Academy, St Oswald's CofE Academy and Arksey Primary School, all of which score higher on the same metric. Headteacher David Longley leads a mixed, non-denominational state primary for children aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. The school is noticeably oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 45 applications for 32 places, with all 30 first-preference families offered a spot. That level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, and the school's 42.6% pupil premium rate indicates it serves a community with above-average economic need.
