Check the area around this school
208th of 211 primary schools in Leeds we can score, 221 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 — 0.8/10 against 2,068 of them, against 1.0/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 42.0 · 10 | 40% | 0.38 |
| Ofsted | 5 | 35% | 0.18 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing

The higher standard was reached by 0.0%, against a national median of 7%.

Ofsted inspected the school in January 2026 under the new report-card framework, which grades each area separately and gives no overall grade.

What Ofsted said about Bramley St Peter's Church of England Primary School
Overview
The report states that the school "requires significant improvement" because it is "performing significantly less well than it might in all the circumstances reasonably be expected to perform." While early years provision and personal development are effective, inconsistencies in teaching and persistently low attendance hinder pupil achievement.
Strengths
- Early years provision is strong, with a "keen focus on developing children's communication and language skills" and a "secure base of phonics knowledge."
- The school is "inclusive," with "bespoke academic and therapeutic provision" ensuring vulnerable pupils engage effectively.
- Personal development is "effective, personalised and appropriate," fostering a sense of belonging and respect for difference.
- Staff demonstrate "care and support," creating a "settled and respectful learning environment" where bullying is decreasing.
Areas to improve
- Leaders must act swiftly to improve attendance, which is "consistently below national figures" and has "no sign of sustained or widespread improvement."
- Teaching must become "highly effective and consistent across the curriculum, particularly in mathematics," to address gaps in basic knowledge.
- Leaders must ensure actions to remedy weaknesses have "demonstrable impact," as current improvements are not yet consistent.
Safeguarding
The safeguarding standards are met, with an "open culture in which safeguarding is everyone's responsibility" ensuring pupils "are made safer and feel safe."
