About this school
George Dixon Primary will be a primary academy in Birmingham. It teaches children aged 4 to 11.
Ofsted will inspect it once it opens.
Ofsted judgement
George Dixon Primary has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in January 2027, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was George Dixon Primary School. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: George Dixon Primary School

Results reflect each school's cohort as much as its teaching, and free school meals share is context, not a judgement. Small gaps between neighbouring schools are rarely meaningful on their own.
