Copthorne Primary School
Bradford, BD7 3AY · Bradford · primary school
7th of 156 primary schools in Bradford we can score, 157 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 — 9.2/10 against 2,452 of them, against 8.3/10 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 40% | 3.11 |
| Ofsted | 91 | 35% | 3.19 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 19.0 · 90 | 25% | 2.26 |
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. In 2024/25, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 19.0%.

Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 522 pupils in a school with 548 places, leaving 26 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 26 places remaining, what is the current waiting list length for new admissions? How does the breakfast club operate during term time? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths?
