About West Walker Primary School
West Walker Primary School has a mixed picture when it comes to how parents feel about the school. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering September 2024 to September 2025, 71% of the 14 respondents said they would recommend the school to other parents. That's a solid majority, but the detail is more nuanced. For instance, while 72% of parents either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, 29% disagreed. On safety, 72% felt their child is safe, but 28% disagreed or strongly disagreed. Concerns are a particular sticking point: only 50% of parents felt concerns are dealt with properly, while 36% disagreed. On the plus side, 86% agreed or strongly agreed that the school makes them aware of what their child will learn, and 79% felt their child does well. The school is clearly popular in the community — it was oversubscribed for 2025/26 entry, with 25 applications for 11 places, a ratio of 2.27 applicants per place, and all 11 first-preference offers were taken up.
