About Moat Farm Infant School

Moat Farm Infant School in Sandwell holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school was last inspected in 2019, when it received an ungraded outcome confirming it 'remains Good', and its previous graded inspection in 2014 also awarded an overall effectiveness rating of 2. Within the breakdown, early years provision, leadership and management all scored 2, meaning Good. For a school that takes children from age 2 to 7, this consistency matters: it suggests solid foundations from the nursery stage upwards. The school is oversubscribed, with 172 applications for 104 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, and 95 of those were first-preference offers. That level of demand hints at a strong local reputation. While the school does not publish Key Stage 2 results — it finishes at infant level — its feeder relationship with local junior schools will be a practical consideration for parents planning the next step.
