AN independent school in Ludlow has received top marks.

Moor Park’s Early Years team has been graded as Outstanding in every area in their recent Independent Schools Inspectorate inspection.

“I am very proud to see that the inspecting team were able to see the hard work that goes into ensuring that every child can flourish in our setting,” said Katie Gedye, the head of Lower School.

The report noted that ‘the children become increasingly assured and equipped to be confident in a wide range of situations. They are receptive to learning and are equipped with language that enables them to explore, construct and reflect on their activities.’

Moor Park’s Early Years department begins for the very youngest children at Tick Tock, the year round, wrap around, day care facility, taking babies from three months to four years.

From there children transition to the Nursery and Kindergarten classes in the main school and subsequently into reception and the school beyond.

Moor Park is a a co-educational day and boarding school, for children aged 3-13 years.
