About Corbett VA CofE Primary School

Corbett VA CofE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in South Staffordshire that clearly appeals to local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 18 applications for just 8 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 25 — meaning more than two families applied for every spot. All 8 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while the school is popular, those who put it first have a strong chance. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in March 2024, confirmed that it “remains Good,” matching its previous graded inspection from 2018. The early years provision was rated Good in that 2024 visit, down from Outstanding in 2014, but the overall picture is of a stable, well-regarded local school. With just 67 pupils on roll against a capacity of 98, the school isn’t bursting at the seams, but the oversubscription data shows it’s a sought-after choice for families in the area.
