Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
7.7/10 Above average

34th of 212 primary schools in Leeds we can score, 222 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to the 2,100 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.4/10 among them, against 9.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 79.0 · 86 40% 3.43
Ofsted 52 35% 1.81
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 31.0 · 98 25% 2.46

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 31.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.4 out of 10 among them, against 9.1 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in Leeds United Foundation, Volleyball, Karate, and Junior Warrior clubs. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 202 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 8 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific support is offered to help students reach the higher standard in core subjects? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions with only 8 places remaining?
