Primrose Lane Primary School
Wetherby, LS23 6DX · Leeds · primary school
148th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,306 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.2/10 among them, against 5.8/10 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 | 59.0 · 37 | 40% | 1.47 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.11 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 21.0 · 93 | 25% | 2.32 |
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, 59.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, against a national median of 64%. 21.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in February 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.2 out of 10 among them, against 5.8 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Recorder Club, KS2 School Orchestra, School Choir, and peripatetic lessons for woodwind, djembe, and guitar. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 165 pupils in a school with 260 places, leaving 95 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 plan to address the "Requires improvement" rating from the 2024 inspection? What specific support is available for pupils who have not reached the expected standard in maths? How do the peripatetic music lessons integrate with the school orchestra and choir?
