About Lozells Junior and Infant School and Nursery

Lozells Junior and Infant School and Nursery holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2019, and an ungraded visit in October 2024 confirmed that standards have been maintained. The school's most telling academic metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which sits at 68%. That is five percentage points above the Birmingham local authority average of 63%, placing Lozells 89th out of 254 primary schools in the area.

At the higher standard, 8% of pupils achieved across all three subjects, with reading leading at 35%, followed by maths at 30% and writing at 12%. The school's average scaled scores of 106 in both reading and maths are solid, and its national ranking places it in the top 36% of all primary schools.
