About Moorfield Primary School

Moorfield Primary School sits in Telford and Wrekin, a local authority with 56 primary schools, and it has carved out a strong reputation. It ranks 1st in the LA and 2nd overall among all 40 primary schools in the area, placing it in the top 10% locally. Its closest competitors include Newdale Primary School & Nursery, Wrekin View Primary School, and Lilleshall Primary School, all of which also score highly. The school is one of only eight primaries in the LA rated Outstanding by Ofsted, and its most recent inspection in March 2025 confirmed that rating across every category: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That consistency is notable — the school also held an Outstanding rating in its previous inspection in 2014. With 282 pupils on roll against a capacity of 278, it is operating at near-full capacity, and demand is high: for the 2025/26 intake, there were 112 applications for just 29 places, with 43 first-preference applications.
