West Park Primary School
About West Park Primary School
West Park Primary School in Wolverhampton is a mixed, non-denominational state primary for children aged 3 to 11, and it is clearly a school in high demand. With 276 pupils on roll against a capacity of 304, it is not yet full, but the admission data tells a different story. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 139 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4.63. Of those, 55 were first-preference applications, yet only 29 first-preference offers were made. That level of competition suggests a strong local reputation. The school’s intake is notably diverse in terms of disadvantage: 55.9% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is significantly above the national average and places West Park in a context where it is serving a community with high levels of economic need. The headteacher is Azizan Kabil, and the school also offers nursery provision for younger children.
