Bantock Primary School
About Bantock Primary School
Bantock Primary School in Wolverhampton is a state-funded mixed primary for children aged 3 to 11, with a published capacity of 430 pupils. Its nursery provision means families can start their child’s education from age three, though the school does not have a sixth form. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits above the national average, reflecting the local demographic context of the Wolverhampton local authority. Despite this, the school remains a popular choice: admission information shows it is oversubscribed, indicating strong demand from local families. The school’s religious character is listed as “Does not apply,” so it does not prioritise places based on faith. With a headteacher named J Thomas at the helm, Bantock Primary operates as a community school within the state system, offering a broad, inclusive intake that mirrors the diversity of its surrounding area.
