About Wansbeck Primary School

Wansbeck Primary School has a mixed reception from parents, according to the Parent View survey. 69% of respondents would recommend the school, though that leaves nearly a third who would not. The school is clearly popular in the local area, however, as it was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 44 applications for 27 places – a ratio of 1.63 applicants per place. All 26 first-preference applicants were offered a spot. Looking at the survey details, 79% of parents strongly agreed or agreed that their child is happy, and 83% felt their child is safe. There are some more polarising areas: only 71% agreed that behaviour is good, and just 14% felt bullying is dealt with effectively (though 64% said it wasn't applicable to them). Support for children with SEND drew a strong response, with 69% agreeing or strongly agreeing that the school provides the necessary support.
