About Belgrave St Bartholomew's Academy

Ofsted's Parent View survey, based on 26 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, shows that 85% of parents would recommend Belgrave St Bartholomew's Academy to other families. That's a strong endorsement, and it's backed up by the fact that the school is genuinely popular: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 99 applications for just 59 places, with 78 of those applications coming as first preferences. That oversubscription ratio of 1.68 tells you this is a school local families are actively choosing. The survey responses paint a picture of a school where parents feel their children are happy and safe — 89% either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and a similar proportion felt their child is safe. There were a few more mixed views on how the school supports wider personal development, where 15% disagreed and another 15% didn't know, but the overall sentiment is clearly positive.
