Maney Hill Primary School
About Maney Hill Primary School
Maney Hill Primary School is a state primary in Birmingham that is genuinely popular with local families. The school is essentially full, with 421 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420, and the demand is clear from its admissions data for the 2025/26 intake: 177 applications were received for just 60 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.95. Only 55 of those offers went to first-preference families, meaning competition is real. The school serves a relatively affluent intake, with just 6.9% of pupils eligible for free school meals, well below the national average. This is a school that draws from a catchment area where fewer families claim FSM, and the high application numbers suggest it is seen as a strong local option. The school has no religious character and is co-educational, taking children from age 4 through to 11.
