St Lawrence Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School
About St Lawrence Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School
St Lawrence Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School is a small state primary in Telford and Wrekin, with a school capacity of just 105 pupils. This makes it one of the more intimate settings in the local authority, and given its Church of England designation, it likely draws families specifically seeking a faith-based education within the state system. While the data does not provide exact pupil numbers or free school meal percentages, the school’s size relative to its capacity suggests it may not be heavily oversubscribed, though demand can vary year on year. The headteacher, Craig Battrick, leads a mixed-gender school for children aged 4 to 11, with no nursery provision or sixth form. In the wider local context, Telford and Wrekin has 56 primary schools of the same type, with only eight rated Outstanding by Ofsted, so St Lawrence’s Good rating places it in the solid majority rather than the top tier.
