Morley Church of England Primary Academy

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our website. Here at Morley, we are a small, friendly one-form entry Church of England school. 

We are proud of our reputation for providing a good quality education within a caring Christian environment. Our school provides a wide range of experiences for all children so that everyone can have success and enjoy coming to school. We aim to encourage a love of learning from an early age, delivering an exciting curriculum. We expect our children to work hard and be active in their lessons as we believe this is essential for both success and enjoyment of learning. All aspects of school life are underpinned by a set of Christian values – we teach children to value themselves, others, their community and the environment, thinking ahead to our children’s place in the communities of the future.

Ofsted visited Morley in May 2025 for a full graded inspection. A judgement of Good was given in all areas, with the inspectors highlighting the high expectations set and ambition for pupils to achieve well. The strength of the curriculum was seen to be bearing fruit in how well pupils learn, and the school’s personal development programme giving pupils plentiful opportunity to see the world beyond the school gate. Warm, caring relationships were seen to be ‘key’ here at Morley, resulting in pupils developing into responsible and active citizens.  The full Ofsted report is available here.

Starting school in September 2026?

Parent comments

Our overarching vision for Tacolneston and Morley Federation is:

            As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace 1 Peter 4:10

At Morley Primary Academy, we use the gifts we have received to grow together.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 “No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine.” John 15:4

Work together, learn together, grow together
