About Sandgate Primary School

Sandgate Primary School sits within the Kent local authority, in the Folkestone and Hythe area, and ranks 2nd out of 35 primary schools locally — placing it in the top 5% of its peers. Its closest competitors in the district include Stelling Minnis Church of England Primary School, Leigh Academy Dartford, and Temple Ewell Church of England Primary School, all of which score highly on the same ranking metric. The school is a mixed, state-funded primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no religious character and no nursery or sixth-form provision. Headteacher Matthew Green leads a school that is nearly at full capacity, with 419 pupils against a maximum of 420. In its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2021, the school received an overall rating of Good, with every assessed category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — all rated Good. This represents a change from its previous inspection in 2007, when it was judged Outstanding across the board.
