Kingshurst Primary School

Birmingham, B37 6BN · Solihull · primary school

Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
1.9/10 Well below average

44th of 45 primary schools in Solihull we can score, 59 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 4.5/10 against 426 of them, against 2.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 55.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils visit the Zoological Park in Wolverhampton and the Space Centre in Leicester. A breakfast club is available, but there is no after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 474 pupils in a capacity of 540 places, leaving 66 spare spots. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? What specific actions have been taken since the 2023 inspection to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How do parents manage the transition for children who need care after the school day ends, given the absence of an after-school club?
