School overview

Moor Park Primary School is a primary school serving Blackpool, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 373 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 44% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 21.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 103 in reading and 101 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Competition for places is real here - 90% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (30 first choices for 28 places). There are about 17.0 pupils per teacher. Moor Park Primary School 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. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
