About Two Gates Primary School

Two Gates Primary School in Tamworth is a state primary for children aged 3 to 11, and its intake numbers tell a clear story of local demand. With 217 pupils on roll against a capacity of 446, the school is operating at under half its physical size, yet it is significantly oversubscribed. For the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 60 applications for just 26 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.31. All 26 first-preference applicants were offered a place, meaning the school is a strong first choice for local families but has limited room to expand its intake. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 28.1%, which is notably higher than the national average for primary schools and suggests the school serves a community with above-average levels of economic disadvantage. This context is important for understanding the challenges and priorities the school faces day to day.
