Ludlow Church of England School

Founded on Christian values and embracing those of all faiths and none, the school operates under the vision of “Excellence Together.” Its core values of Excellence, Resilience, and Care guide the school’s mission to nurture confident, responsible, and well-rounded individuals prepared for the modern world.

The curriculum covers a broad range of subjects including English, mathematics, science, modern foreign languages, humanities, and computing. Students also engage in creative and practical subjects such as art, design and technology, food technology, performing arts, and physical education, alongside personal development programmes like PSHE, RSHE, and SMSC.

In the 2024 GCSE examinations, the school recorded an Attainment 8 score of 41.8. Additionally, 58.7% of students achieved a standard pass (grade 4 or above) in English and mathematics, while 31.2% achieved a strong pass (grade 5 or above) in those subjects.

The school is committed to inclusive education and works to remove barriers to learning for all students, including those with physical or sensory disabilities. Support is coordinated by the Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) and an assistant SENCO, supported by a team of learning support assistants and a dedicated 'Refocus Room' manager.

Admissions are coordinated by the Shropshire Council, which manages both standard and in-year applications. Prospective parents are encouraged to visit the school, and specific details regarding the application process, oversubscription criteria, and admission timetables are available through the school’s admissions policy.

The school operates on a term-based calendar, with the academic year typically beginning in early September. The calendar includes key events such as Year 6 induction days, Year 8 residential trips to Arthog, and scheduled vaccination sessions.

The campus, located on Bromfield Road, includes specialized facilities such as science laboratories, a workshop for design and technology, and dedicated spaces for food technology. The site also features sports facilities and grounds managed by the estate and facilities team.

The school provides a range of opportunities beyond the formal curriculum, including a Homework Club and various extra-curricular activities. These offerings are designed to support the school's mission of nurturing well-rounded individuals.
