About Barton Moss Community Primary School

Ofsted’s Parent View survey for Barton Moss Community Primary School, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, shows that 85% of the 26 parents who responded would recommend the school. That’s a strong signal, and it’s backed up by the fact that the school was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, with 37 applications for 27 places – a ratio of 1. 37 applicants per place. 26 of those applications were first-preference choices, and 26 first-preference offers were made, suggesting that most families who wanted a place got one. The school is a state primary in Salford, for children aged 3 to 11, and is non-denominational. It currently has 222 pupils on roll, which is slightly above its official capacity of 210, so it’s clearly a popular choice locally. Headteacher Claire Woolley leads the school, which has a nursery provision attached, making it a natural option for families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
