About Grange Park Primary School

Grange Park Primary School sits within the Telford and Wrekin local authority, a mixed state primary for children aged 3 to 11. In the most recent local rankings, it placed 29th out of 40 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the bottom half of its peers. The top-performing schools nearby include Moorfield Primary School, Newdale Primary School & Nursery, and Wrekin View Primary School, all of which scored higher on the same ranking metric. Grange Park’s ranking score of 54 places it some way behind those leaders. The school is noticeably oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 79 applications for 52 places, with all 52 first-preference applicants receiving an offer. That level of demand suggests strong local confidence, even if the headline ranking doesn’t place it among the borough’s elite. The school also offers nursery provision, which may appeal to families looking for continuity from early years through to Year 6.
