Oak Hill First School
About Oak Hill First School
Oak Hill First School in Redditch is a state primary for children aged 3 to 9, currently home to 430 pupils against a capacity of 450. That near-full roll suggests the school is well placed in the local community, and the demand is clearly there: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 96 applications for 69 places, with 62 of those coming as first preferences. That works out at roughly 1. 4 applicants per place, a solid signal of popularity. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 20%, which is above the national average for primary schools and gives the intake a noticeably more diverse socioeconomic mix than some of its Worcestershire neighbours. The school is non-religious, co-educational, and includes a nursery provision, so it caters for families from the very start of the school journey through to Year 4.
