About Prince Edward Primary School

Prince Edward Primary School sits within the Sheffield local authority, a large urban area with 131 primary schools to choose from. The school ranks 18th in the city, placing it comfortably in the top 20% of its peers locally and earning a top-50 tier classification. For context, the highest-ranked primaries in Sheffield include Dobcroft Junior School, Totley Primary School, and Angram Bank Primary School, all of which sit ahead in the rankings. Prince Edward is a mixed, state-funded primary for children aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. It is not a faith school, and its headteacher is Matt Sieczkarek. The school is noticeably oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 106 applications for 47 places, with 46 of those coming as first preferences. That level of demand suggests strong local reputation, and the school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2024 confirmed it remains Good, an upgrade from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2013.
