About Ncea Harry Hotspur Church of England Primary School

Ncea Harry Hotspur Church of England Primary School is a state primary in Northumberland, a local authority where just nine of 127 primary schools currently hold an Outstanding Ofsted rating. The school itself is rated Good, and it sits 33rd out of 58 primaries in the county on the key stage 2 expected standard measure. That puts it in the bottom half of Northumberland schools, though it is worth noting the top three peers in the area — Eastlea, Belsay, and St Aidan's Catholic Primary in Ashington — all score higher on the same ranking metric. With a capacity of 210 but only 100 pupils on roll, the school is significantly under-subscribed in terms of physical space, yet it was oversubscribed for 2025/26 admissions, receiving 15 applications for 11 places and making offers to all 11 first-preference families. The headteacher is John MacFarlane, and the school has a Church of England religious character, serving children from age two through to eleven.
