Ofsted: Outstanding · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
9.6/10 Well above average

2nd 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.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.8/10 against 3,733 of them, against 9.6/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 85.0 · 94 40% 3.75
Ofsted 96 35% 3.37
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 33.0 · 99 25% 2.47

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, 85.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 33.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in January 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.6 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Recorder, First Aid, Orchestra, Drama, ICT, Arts & Crafts, Gardening, and Newspaper Clubs. Sports include football, netball, fitness, rugby, dance, and gymnastics. Trips visit Nell Bank, Castleton, and Whitby. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 344 pupils in a building with 308 places, meaning it is over capacity by 36. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is over capacity? What support is available for pupils who do not attend the after-school club? How does the curriculum balance the wide range of clubs with core academic time?
