Ladypool Primary School is a Grade II* listed primary school on Stratford Road in Sparkbrook, Birmingham, England. It stands next to St Agatha's Church.
It was built as Stratford Road Primary in 1885 by architects Martin & Chamberlain as a Birmingham board school, one of around forty schools built by that firm in an innovative style as a result of the Elementary Education Act 1870.
The school was extensively damaged in the Birmingham Tornado on July 28, 2005 and lost its distinctive Martin & Chamberlain tower. The school proposed to build a replicate of the tower. On October 26, 2006, Birmingham City Council Planning Department decided that the planning application should be referred to the Department for Communities and Local Government.
