Every child who put Grange Primary School first was offered a place in 2026, so no distance cut-off applied: living further away did not cost a place that year.

About Grange Primary School

Grange Primary School is a primary school in Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 296 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 33% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 29.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 101 in reading and 102 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Grange Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 33 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 8.2%. There are about 16.8 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 52% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Grange Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
