About Talbot Primary School
Talbot Primary School sits within the Leeds local authority, where it is one of 26 primary schools rated Outstanding out of a total of 221 state primaries. That puts it in a select group, though it faces stiff competition from nearby peers: Harewood Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School and Shadwell Primary School both share a top ranking score of 90, with St Philip's Catholic Primary School close behind at 87. The nearest Outstanding-rated school to Talbot is Moortown Primary School, just a kilometre away, so families in this part of Leeds have several high-performing options to weigh up. Talbot is a mixed, non-denominational state primary for children aged 3 to 11, with nursery provision on site. Its headteacher is Parm Gill, and the school has capacity for 470 pupils. The Outstanding Ofsted rating is a significant marker, but it's worth noting that the school's religious character is listed as 'does not apply', which may appeal to families seeking a secular environment.
