Crossley Fields Junior and Infant School
Mirfield, WF14 0BE · Kirklees · primary school
74th of 99 primary schools in Kirklees we can score, 144 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 — 2.2/10 against 2,542 of them, against 2.4/10 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 | 57.0 · 32 | 40% | 1.29 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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.
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 February 2023. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (2.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils access martial arts, rugby, and hockey, alongside the Gigglebox arts programme and a trip to a This Girl Can event. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 482 pupils in a capacity of 618, leaving 136 spare places. This means there is real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than the school is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to move from the expected standard to the higher standard? What specific strategies are used to close the gap with the national median? How do the smaller class sizes impact individual teaching time?
