About Manor Primary School

Manor Primary School is a state primary in Wolverhampton that is currently educating 672 pupils, which is 42 over its official capacity of 630. That squeeze is no accident: the school received 160 applications for just 88 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, making it oversubscribed by a ratio of 1.82 to one. Of those 160 applications, 84 were first-preference choices, and 82 first-preference offers were made, so the vast majority of families who put Manor top of their list got in, but competition is real. The school serves a notably diverse intake: 32.6% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average for primary schools (around 23-24%) and a clear signal that Manor draws from a wide range of backgrounds. With a nursery on site, it takes children from age three, and its non-religious character means it is a genuinely community-focused option in a local authority where only 10 out of 72 primary schools hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted.
