School Atlas lists 85 state primary schools, 18 state secondary schools, 1 all-through school, 7 special schools, 3 alternative provision schools and 1 post-16 school or college in Walsall. It also lists 11 independent schools and 68 nurseries and other early-years settings.
Of the state primary, secondary and all-through schools, 25 have a religious character: 14 Church of England and 11 Roman Catholic.
Of the 104 state primary, secondary and all-through schools in Walsall, 47 hold an Ofsted overall-effectiveness grade from their last graded inspection: 2 Outstanding and 45 Good.
Ofsted stopped giving state schools a single overall grade in September 2024. Since November 2025 its report cards grade each area separately; 22 of these schools have had one.
Walsall doesn't publish catchment boundaries, though the admission rules for 1 of its schools define an area.
We also hold last-distance-offered records for 48 schools. That distance is not always a cut-off: at a school with places to spare it is simply the furthest applicant.
