About St John's & St Peter's CofE Primary

St John's & St Peter's CofE Primary is a state primary in Birmingham that is running at full capacity with exactly 210 pupils on roll, matching its school capacity of 210. The school serves a community with a very high level of disadvantage: 70. 5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above both the national average and the Birmingham local authority average for primary schools. Demand for places is strong — for entry in 2025/26, the school received 80 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 67. Of those 80 applications, 21 were first-preference offers, meaning every family who put the school first was offered a place, but many others further down the list were turned away. The school is Church of England, which may influence its admissions criteria, and it is led by headteacher Jake Bateson.
