Glusburn Community Primary School
Keighley, BD20 8PJ · North Yorkshire · primary school
145th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 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 4,352 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.4/10 among them, against 3.5/10 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 | 54.0 · 26 | 40% | 1.04 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
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, 54.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in February 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.4 out of 10 among them, against 3.5 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Art Ambassadors, a clay workshop, and sports including gymnastics, dance, football, rugby, cricket, tennis, and badminton.
Getting in. The school has 381 pupils in a capacity of 416, leaving 35 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who fall below the national median in core subjects? What specific steps are taken to improve outcomes for the 7.0% who reach the higher standard? Since there is no breakfast or after-school club, what options exist for families needing wraparound care?
