About Regents Park Community Primary School
Regents Park Community Primary School in Birmingham is a state primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, currently operating close to its full capacity of 450 with 411 pupils on roll. The school serves a community with a notably high level of disadvantage: 69.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, a figure well above the national average. Demand for places is strong, with the school oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake. It received 71 total applications for just 34 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.09. Of those, 28 first-preference applications were made, and all 28 were offered places, suggesting that families who put the school as their top choice have a very strong chance of securing a spot. The school also offers nursery provision, which may be a practical draw for local families with younger children.
