About Jubilee Park Academy
Jubilee Park Academy, a state primary in Sandwell, serves a community with 56.3% of pupils eligible for free school meals, yet its headline Key Stage 2 results sit above the local authority average. In the 2023/24 academic year, 63% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Sandwell average of 60% for primary schools. That places the school 37th out of 92 primaries in the borough, putting it in the top half of local schools. Its ranking score of 63 lands it in the top 50 tier nationally, and it sits just outside the top 35 in the LA. The school is oversubscribed, with 35 applications for 17 places in 2025/26, and all 17 first-preference families received an offer. That level of demand suggests parents locally see value in what the school offers.
Academically, the school performs solidly across the core subjects. In reading, 77% of pupils met the expected standard and the average scaled score was 105, while in maths 70% hit the expected mark with an average score of 103. Writing saw 67% reach the expected standard. At the higher standard, 27% of pupils achieved in both reading and maths, though no pupils reached that level in writing or in the combined reading, writing and maths measure. The school does not publish progress scores for any subject, so it is not possible to compare how much value it adds relative to pupils' starting points. Ofsted last inspected the school in a graded visit in January 2020, rating it Good across all areas including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. A subsequent ungraded inspection in April 2025 confirmed that standards have been maintained.
The school offers nursery provision for children from age two and caters for pupils up to Year 6. Facilities include a dining hall, art studios, music rooms, an ICT suite and a chapel. Sports on offer include tennis, athletics, football, cross country and cricket, while clubs range from eco club and gardening to coding, choir and science club. The school has identified SEND provisions for specific learning difficulties including dyslexia, moderate learning difficulty, social, emotional and mental health needs, speech, language and communication needs, and visual impairment. Parent View responses, based on 12 respondents, were overwhelmingly positive: 100% would recommend the school, and 91% strongly agreed or agreed that their child is happy there. The nearest outstanding-rated primary is Ocker Hill Infant School, 0.7 km away, but for families seeking a Good-rated all-through primary with strong parental satisfaction and above-average outcomes, Jubilee Park Academy is a credible local option.
