About The William Amory Primary School

The William Amory Primary School in Staffordshire Moorlands is a state primary for mixed pupils aged 2 to 11, currently operating below its full capacity of 210 with 189 pupils on roll. The school serves a community where 19% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, a figure that sits above the national average for primary schools in England, suggesting a higher-than-average level of socio-economic disadvantage among its intake. Despite this, the school is clearly popular with local families: for the 2025/26 academic year, it received 49 applications for just 21 places, with 20 of those coming as first preferences, resulting in an oversubscription ratio of 2.33. This level of demand indicates strong local confidence in the school, even as it competes with nearby options like Forsbrook CofE Controlled Primary School, which is just 0.4 kilometres away and holds an Outstanding Ofsted rating.
