About Moor Park Primary School
Moor Park Primary School is a popular choice among Blackpool families, with 23 of 25 places offered to first-preference applicants in the 2025/26 admissions round. The school received 52 total applications for those places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.08, meaning more than two families applied for every available spot. This level of demand suggests strong local confidence in the school, though Parent View data is not available in the current information to confirm satisfaction rates directly. Headteacher Faye Haslam leads a mixed, non-religious primary for children aged 3 to 11, with nursery provision on site. The school operates within its capacity of 420, currently educating 373 pupils. A significant 35.6% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is above the national average and reflects the school's role in a community with higher-than-average deprivation. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in February 2023, confirmed it remains Good, though inspectors noted concerns that require monitoring.
