About The Leasingham St Andrew's Church of England Primary School
The Leasingham St Andrew’s Church of England Primary School is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, currently home to 196 children against a capacity of 210. That leaves a small buffer of 14 places, but the school is clearly in demand: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 42 applications for 20 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2. 1 to one. Fifteen of those applications were first-preference choices, and all 15 first-preference families were offered a place. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 18. 4%, which is above the national primary average of around 23% but still a notable minority within the school community. The school is Church of England in character and sits in the Lincolnshire local authority area, within the North Kesteven borough. Its headteacher is Matthew Baker.
