Schools in Hull

Reviewed by the catchment.school editorial team · Last updated 15 March 2026

Hull (Kingston upon Hull) has 117 schools across the city, with 87 primary and 14 secondary schools administered by Hull City Council. The city is structured into distinct neighbourhoods - from Bransholme and Anlaby Road in the north and west to Holderness Road and Longhill in the east - and catchment areas broadly follow these geographic divides. Most community schools use proximity as the key tiebreaker after siblings.

Secondary education in Hull includes a number of high-performing academies. Sirius Academy West and Malet Lambert are among the most sought-after, with demand sometimes exceeding catchment distances of under one mile. Hull has invested significantly in school improvement, and Ofsted judgements across the city have improved markedly since 2019. Families should apply through the council's coordinated scheme by mid-January for September secondary places.

School demand in Hull

Across the 113 schools in Hull with published capacity data, the average fill rate is 95%. 43 of them are currently at or above their published admission number, and at those schools catchment distance is likely to decide places at the next intake.

21 schools in Hull have a religious character, so faith criteria sit alongside catchment distance in their admissions policies.

93 of the schools in Hull are academies that set their own admissions criteria independently of East Riding of Yorkshire, so check each school's policy directly rather than assuming the council default applies.

50 of the schools in Hull have a current Ofsted rating, of which 44 are rated Good or Outstanding. Demand and catchment distance tend to be tightest at the highest-rated schools.
