Waddington All Saints Academy
About Waddington All Saints Academy
Waddington All Saints Academy is a state primary in North Kesteven that currently teaches 377 pupils against a capacity of 431, meaning it has some room to grow but is clearly in demand. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 76 total applications for 46 places, with exactly 46 first-preference offers made, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 65. That level of competition suggests local families are keen to secure a place here. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 13. 3%, which is below the national average for primary schools and points to a relatively affluent intake. The school is non-religious, co-educational, and serves children from age 4 to 11. Headteacher Zoe Jepson leads a school that, in its most recent Ofsted inspection in June 2025, was rated Good overall, with Outstanding grades for early years provision, personal development, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management.
