About The Mosley Academy
Parents thinking about The Mosley Academy will want to know what other families think, and the picture is largely positive. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, 85% of the 62 respondents said they would recommend the school. That’s a strong vote of confidence. The school is also clearly popular in the local area: for 2025/26 admissions, it received 117 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.9. Of those, 39 were first-preference applications, and 29 first-preference offers were made. So it’s a school where getting a place is competitive, and the majority of families who get in seem to be happy with their choice. On individual questions, the strongest signals were around clubs and activities, with 74% strongly agreeing their child can take part, and 63% strongly agreeing their child feels safe. However, there are some areas where parents are less satisfied, particularly around support for children with SEND, where 39% disagreed that the school gives them the support they need.
