Boroughbridge Primary School

York, YO51 9EB · North Yorkshire · primary school

Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary
1.8/10 Well below average

237th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 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 3,067 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9/10 among them, against 2.4/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 57.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9 out of 10 among them, against 2.4 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club for wraparound care.

Getting in. The school has 280 pupils in a building with 252 places, meaning it is over capacity by 28. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity while maintaining its Good rating? What specific support is available for pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard in core subjects? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs integrate with the wider school day?
