About Kings Hill Primary School

Kings Hill Primary School is a popular choice among Walsall families, with 56 first-preference applications for just 59 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.69. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the high demand speaks for itself. The school has undergone a remarkable turnaround since its 2016 inspection, when it was rated Requires Improvement. In its most recent graded inspection in 2018, Ofsted awarded the school an Outstanding rating across the board, including for leadership and management and early years provision. A subsequent ungraded inspection in March 2024 confirmed the school remains Outstanding, though with a note of 'Concerns' attached. This is a state primary for mixed genders aged 2 to 11, with nursery provision on site, and is led by headteacher Nin Matharu.
