Moor Hall Primary School
About Moor Hall Primary School
Moor Hall Primary School’s headline metrics put it well ahead of the Birmingham average for primary schools. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, 84% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 63%. That is a gap of 21 percentage points, and it places the school 15th out of 254 primaries in Birmingham, comfortably inside the top 10% nationally. The school also outperforms on the higher standard: 28% of pupils achieved that level across all three subjects. Individual subject scores are strong too, with 97% reaching the expected standard in both reading and maths, and average scaled scores of 110 in each. Writing is slightly lower at 91% expected, but still well above the LA norm. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in November 2024, awarded Outstanding across every graded category — quality of education, early years provision, personal development, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management. That continues a track record of Outstanding ratings, with the previous inspection in 2014 also grading overall effectiveness as Outstanding.
