Leicestershire does not publish how far from the school the last child offered a Reception place lived, so there is no cut-off distance to show for The Hall School. Ask the school or the council how places were allocated this year.

School overview

The Hall School is a primary school serving Leicestershire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 420 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 66% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 1.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on 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 106 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 3% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 81% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (67 first choices for 59 places). Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 8% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. The Hall 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.
