About Moggerhanger Primary School

Moggerhanger Primary School is a state-funded mixed primary school in Central Bedfordshire, currently educating 112 pupils against a capacity of 125, meaning it has a small number of spare places. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 14.4 per cent, which is slightly below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively mixed intake in terms of socio-economic background. Demand for places is clear: for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 22 total applications for 13 places, with all 13 first-preference applicants receiving offers. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 1.69, indicating that while the school is popular, it is not dramatically oversubscribed. The school offers nursery provision for children aged two and above, and its age range runs from two to eleven, so it can serve families from early years right through to the end of Key Stage 2. There is no religious character attached to the school.
