Co-op Academy Broadhurst
Manchester, M40 0BX · Manchester · primary school
58th of 123 primary schools in Manchester we can score, 137 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 4.5/10 against 1,896 of them, against 3.8/10 nationally. 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 | 62.0 · 44 | 40% | 1.74 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 25% | 0.73 |
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, 62.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.8 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend Forest School, play athletics, and enjoy arts activities like Santa and the Beanstalk. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 240 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 30. This makes places competitive for new applicants.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 30 more pupils than its stated capacity? What specific support is offered to help pupils bridge the gap between the expected and higher standards? How does the Forest School curriculum integrate with the core maths and English lessons?
