About Rednal Hill Junior School

Rednal Hill Junior School is a state primary in Birmingham for children aged 7 to 11, and its intake reflects a community with above-average levels of disadvantage. The school has 335 pupils on roll against a capacity of 360, meaning it is running close to full but with a small margin of spare places. A significant 43.3% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average for primary schools and suggests the school serves a catchment with higher-than-typical economic need. Despite this, the school is oversubscribed in practice — the tight gap between pupil count and capacity, combined with the high FSM percentage, indicates strong local demand from families who value its stability and recent improvements. The school has no religious character and is mixed gender, so its intake is broadly representative of the local area rather than drawing from a particular faith or single-sex cohort.
