Westbourne Primary School
Bradford, BD8 7PL · Bradford · primary school
96th 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 — 3.3/10 against 1,912 of them, against 3.1/10 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 | 40% | 1.10 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 4.0 · 35 | 25% | 0.88 |
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, 55.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2025. 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 (3.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 406 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 14 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With 14 places remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new starters? Since 55.0% met the expected standard, what specific support is available for pupils who need to close the gap to the national median? How does the school ensure that the 4.0% who reach the higher standard continue to be challenged?
