About Thanet Primary School

Thanet Primary School in Hull is a popular choice among local families, with 32 first-preference applications for its 34 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, meaning nearly every first-choice family secured a spot. The school is oversubscribed overall, receiving 61 applications for those places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.79. That level of demand suggests parents who know the school well are keen to get their children in. Of the 34 places, 32 went to first-preference applicants, which is a strong signal of satisfaction. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 rated it Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That’s a notable improvement from its previous inspection in 2016, when it was rated Requires Improvement overall, with leadership and management also at that lower level.
