Kirby Moor School
Brampton, Cumberland, North West · CA8 2AB
Kirby Moor School is a small independent boys' school in Brampton, with around 60 pupils on roll. Without a religious affiliation and operating on a day basis, it admits boys from age 11 and takes a notably individual approach given its modest size. Led by Mrs Karen Blaylock, the school is inspected by the ISI. Its headline academic measures sit well below national figures, which suggests a setting focused on pupils who benefit from a different kind of support rather than on conventional examination league tables.

Teaching & academics
The published data places Kirby Moor's outcomes far below the national picture, with an Attainment 8 score of 0.4 against a national average of 46.9 and no pupils recorded as achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths, where the national average is 47%. Figures of this kind, combined with the school's very small roll, point to a cohort whose needs and starting points differ from the mainstream. Parents will want to discuss directly with the school how progress is measured and what each boy is working towards.
