Moseley School and Sixth Form

School overview

Moseley School and Sixth Form is a secondary school serving Birmingham, classified by the DfE as a foundation school. It has 1,428 pupils aged 11 to 18 on roll. The school's average Attainment 8 score in the latest GCSE results was 39.7 — below the national average (national average: 46). Its Attainment 8 score has risen by 0.6 points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of secondary schools nationally.

26% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, well below the national average of about 45%. 45% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Moseley School and Sixth Form their first choice was offered one of its 169 Year 7 places. In 2025 the furthest child offered a place lived 2.18 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. After Year 11, 86% of its leavers went on to education, an apprenticeship or work that they stayed in for at least two terms. Overall pupil absence was 10.8%. There are about 15.4 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 65% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Moseley School and Sixth Form does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
