Parents at Burnt Tree Primary School are overwhelmingly positive about their experience. In the most recent Parent View survey, 89% of respondents said they would recommend the school, with 72% strongly agreeing that their child is happy there and 75% strongly agreeing that their child feels safe. The school is clearly popular locally: for the 2025/26 admissions round, it received 84 applications for 57 places, an oversubscription ratio of 1.47, and all 50 first-preference applicants were offered a place. That kind of demand suggests a strong reputation among Sandwell families. The survey also shows that 69% of parents strongly agree their child can take part in clubs and activities, and 61% strongly agree the school makes them aware of what their child will learn. While a small minority of parents expressed concerns — 14% disagreed that the school lets them know how their child is doing, for example — the overall picture is one of high satisfaction and confidence in the school's leadership.
