Idle CofE Primary School
Bradford, BD10 8LU · Bradford · primary school
102nd 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 the 3,424 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.8/10 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 | 60.0 · 39 | 62% | 2.40 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 38% | 1.13 |
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, 60.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.8 out of 10 among them, against 3.5 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in football, girls' football, cricket, badminton, and multi-sports. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 389 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 31 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific steps are taken to raise attainment from the current 60.0% towards the national median? How does the curriculum adapt for the 31 available places?
