Every child who put Manor Primary 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).

School overview

Manor Primary School is a primary school serving Wirral, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 120 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. At its most recent graded inspection, Ofsted rated Manor Primary School 'Requires improvement'.
