How many families applied
Preferences expressed and offers made at Reception, as published by the Department for Education. These describe demand. They do not indicate whether any particular child would be offered a place.
In the 2025 intake, 29 families named New Earswick Primary School as their first preference, and the school made 29 offers.
That is 1.00 first preferences per place offered, which places it above 53% of schools admitting at Reception in England that year.

Exam results
Published by the Department for Education for the whole year group. Figures for smaller cohorts are withheld by DfE to protect pupil privacy and appear here as a dash, not a zero.
| Year | Expected standard in reading, writing & maths | Higher standard | Average reading score | Average maths score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024/25 | 50.0% | 0.0% | 102.0 | 103.0 |
| 2023/24 | 50.0% | 5.0% | 106.0 | 104.0 |
| 2022/23 | 79.0% | 9.0% | 109.0 | 108.0 |
Teachers staying and leaving
These come from the School Workforce Census, which follows each teacher into the next year. The numbers count full-time jobs, so a teacher who works half the week counts as half. They are not a count of people.
| Census year | Teachers (FTE) | Still there a year later | Moved to another state school | Left state schools | Left in total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024/25 | 8.8 | 5.8 | 2.0 | 1.0 | 34.1% |
| 2023/24 | 9.8 | 7.8 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 20.4% |
| 2022/23 | 9.8 | 8.8 | 0.0 | 1.0 | 10.2% |
| 2021/22 | 8.0 | 8.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0% |
| 2020/21 | 8.0 | 8.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0% |
| 2019/20 | 9.0 | 8.0 | 0.0 | 1.0 | 11.1% |
This is turnover among teachers. It says nothing about the headteacher or the senior leadership team: DfE publishes leadership retention separately and we do not hold it by school.
Catchment area
Nobody publishes a catchment area map for this school that we can read. That does not mean an address is outside its area. It means we hold no map, so we cannot tell you either way.
How places were allocated
York publishes these figures on national offer day, the day families are told which school their child has been given. It is the only place that says how the school chose between the children who applied.

How the places were shared out
Schools that get more applications than they have places have to choose. Each school has a list of rules, and it works down the list until the places run out. York publishes how many children got in under each rule. These are York's own names for its own rules, so they do not mean the same thing at a school in another area.

A rule that let nobody in that year is not listed. Some children are given a place at a school they did not ask for, because they have to go somewhere, and no rule applies to them.
