If you are a family living in, or moving to Shropshire, you will be satisfied by the many excellent schools and their results in national assessments.
Shropshire has a strong commitment to providing opportunities for every child and young person to achieve their potential.
There are 61 primary schools, 20 secondary schools and 46 independent private schools within the county. Shropshire schools continually rank above average in the league tables with schools such as Newport Girls' High School and Shrewsbury School often achieving a 100% GCSE A-C pass rate.
For younger children, there are various childcare options available both on-site and off for staff at RSH and PRH. Daisy Chain day care is located at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, which gives priority to NHS staff. The nursery has superb facilities for children including a small forest school and a sensory room. Apley Village Day Nursery is situated on the Princess Royal Hospital grounds and offers a really flexible solution to all your childcare needs, with discounts available for all NHS employees.
