Bishop Lonsdale Church of England Primary Academy is located on Shaws Lane in Eccleshall, Stafford, Staffordshire. The school is under the local authority of Staffordshire and follows the Church of England denomination. It caters to a mixed-sex student body, serving children aged from 3 to 11 years.
The headteacher of the school is Mrs. Claire Jones. The school currently has 239 pupils, with a capacity for up to 330 students, and operates as an academy converter. This indicates that the school has converted from a different type of school governance to become an academy, which often grants it more autonomy, especially in terms of curriculum and financial decisions.
The school was previously known as Bishop Lonsdale CofE VC Primary School before it closed and transitioned to its current status as Bishop Lonsdale Church of England Primary Academy.
This change likely represents a shift in the school's management and organizational structure. The school's latest Ofsted inspection occurred on 26 June 2019, where it underwent a short inspection.
Ofsted inspections assess various aspects of a school's performance, including the quality of education, behavior and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management.
