Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Secondary
4.8/10 Broadly average

14th of 35 secondary schools in Bradford we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.2/10 against 888 of them, against 4.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
