Farsley Westroyd Primary School and Nursery

Leeds, LS28 5BH · Leeds · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
4.9/10 Broadly average

115th of 212 primary schools in Leeds we can score, 222 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 — 4.6/10 against 3,861 of them, against 4.8/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 63.0 · 46 40% 1.86

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, 63.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared with the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2025. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (4.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the School Council and Running Club, play rounders, and participate in Junior Park Run. They perform in Farsley Westroyd's Got Talent and visit the seaside, theatre, and laser quest. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 209 pupils against a capacity of 262, leaving 53 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school maintain its Good rating following the 2025 inspection?
