About Kingsland Primary School (NC)

Kingsland Primary School stands out sharply against the Birmingham local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined sits at 63%, Kingsland achieves 74% — a full eleven percentage points higher. This places the school in the top 25% of primary schools nationally and ranks it 52nd out of 254 schools in Birmingham, comfortably inside the top quarter of the authority. The school is also notably oversubscribed: for 35 places in the 2025/26 intake, it received 79 total applications, with 33 first-preference offers made. That oversubscription ratio of 2.26 tells you local families are voting with their feet. The school serves a community with high levels of disadvantage — 53% of pupils are eligible for free school meals — which makes its above-average performance all the more striking.
