Staffordshire's ancient county town, Stafford traces its origins to 913, when Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians, raised a defensive burh on a loop of the River Sow in the English Midlands. Around 72,000 people live in the town today, with the wider Borough of Stafford extending across a rural hinterland that draws families towards its quieter villages and nearby market communities. Baswich and Highfields fill the western residential fringe.
Weeping Cross forms a school-competitive corridor south-east of the centre, while Brewood and Penkridge draw families competing for primary and secondary places along the A449 to the south-west. Stafford station sits on the West Coast Main Line, with services connecting south to Birmingham New Street in around forty minutes and north to Stoke-on-Trent.
