Margaret McMillan Primary School
Bradford, BD9 5DF · Bradford · primary school
116th 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 3.6/10 against 2,387 of them, against 3.2/10 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 | 55.0 · 28 | 62% | 1.69 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 5.0 · 40 | 38% | 1.55 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 55.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 5.0% reached the higher standard. 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 (3.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.2 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 593 pupils in a capacity of 665, leaving 72 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in core subjects? What provision is available for children who need extra help with reading or maths? How does the school plan to improve attainment in the coming year?
