About Newton-on-Trent CofE Primary School

Newton-on-Trent CofE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, currently teaching 51 pupils against a capacity of 70. That leaves roughly a quarter of places unfilled, which is notable given the school's admission data for 2025/26 shows it was oversubscribed: 8 applications for 7 places, with all 7 first-preference families offered a spot. The oversubscription ratio of 1.14 suggests modest but genuine local demand. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 9.8%, below the national primary average of around 23%, indicating a relatively less deprived intake than many state schools nationally. The school offers nursery provision for children aged 2 and up, feeding into the main school, and its mixed-gender, all-through primary setup means children can stay from early years right through to Year 6 without changing schools.
