About Springfield Primary Academy

Springfield Primary Academy is a state-funded, mixed primary school in North East Lincolnshire for children aged 3 to 11, and it is currently operating above its official capacity. With 357 pupils on roll against a capacity of 315, the school is clearly in high demand locally. That demand is backed up by the admissions data for the 2025/26 intake: the school received 79 applications for 41 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.93 applicants per place. All 41 first-preference applicants were offered a spot, suggesting that while competition exists, families who put Springfield first have a strong chance of success. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 17.4%, which is slightly below the national primary average of around 23% but still reflects a meaningful level of socioeconomic diversity within the school community.
