East Bierley Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School
Bradford, BD4 6PH · Kirklees · primary school
56th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,274 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.2/10 among them, against 6.7/10 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 | 71.0 · 68 | 40% | 2.73 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.11 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 10.0 · 66 | 25% | 1.65 |
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, 71.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 10.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in September 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.2 out of 10 among them, against 6.7 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club for wraparound care.
Getting in. There are 204 pupils in a school with 210 places, leaving 6 spare spots. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? What specific improvements have been made since the 2023 inspection? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions with only 6 places remaining?
