About St Peter and St Paul Catholic Primary School, A Voluntary Academy
St Peter and St Paul Catholic Primary School sits within Telford and Wrekin, a local authority where only eight of 56 primary schools hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. The school is one of that select group, and its nearest Outstanding neighbour is Moorfield Primary School, 1.8 kilometres away. Moorfield is also one of the top-performing peers in the area, alongside Newdale Primary School & Nursery and Wrekin View Primary School, all of which share similar ranking scores. With a capacity of 210 and just 163 pupils on roll, the school is comfortably below its maximum, yet it was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 45 applications for 19 places. Of those, 17 were first-preference offers, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.37. The school’s Roman Catholic character shapes its identity, and it is led by headteacher Sarah Staniforth.
