About Edgar Stammers Primary Academy

Edgar Stammers Primary Academy is a state-funded, mixed primary school in Walsall, West Midlands, serving children from age 3 to 11 under headteacher Rebecca Givans. In the local authority rankings for primary schools, it sits at 47th out of 58, placing it in the bottom half of Walsall’s primary sector.
