About St George's CofE School

St George's CofE School in Wyre Forest is a state primary that is genuinely popular with local families. The school has 215 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 210, and for the 2025/26 intake it received 46 applications for just 26 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.77 applicants per place. Of those, 25 were first-preference applications, and 25 first-preference offers were made, so almost every family who put it top got in. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 34.2%, which is well above the national average for primary schools and suggests the school serves a community with higher-than-average levels of disadvantage. That context matters when you look at its academic results, because the school is achieving solid outcomes despite a challenging intake. It is a Church of England school with nursery provision from age two, and the headteacher is Clare Snape.
