St Johns CE Primary School
About St Johns CE Primary School
St John’s CE Primary School is a state-funded, mixed Church of England primary in Kirklees, serving children from age 4 to 10. With a school capacity of 210, it is a relatively small setting, and while the data does not specify current pupil numbers, the school’s admission information indicates it is oversubscribed, suggesting strong local demand. Free school meal eligibility is not provided in the data, so it is not possible to compare directly with the national average, but Kirklees as a local authority has 144 primary schools of the same type, eight of which hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. The school’s headteacher is Aidan Blackburn, and its religious designation may appeal to families seeking a values-based education within the state system.
