Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

Every child who put Jervoise School first was offered a place in 2026, so no distance cut-off applied: living further away did not cost a place that year.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

Jervoise School at a glance

Located in Birmingham, Jervoise School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. The school educates roughly 203 pupils aged 3 to 11. 83% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 26.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 6% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 20% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Jervoise School their first choice was offered one of its 16 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 6.0%. There are about 20.7 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 54% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Jervoise School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
