About Asquith Primary School

Asquith Primary School sits within the Leeds local authority, a large and varied education landscape with 221 primary schools. In the most recent KS2 rankings, the school placed 132nd out of 204 primaries in the borough, placing it in the bottom half of local schools. For context, the highest-performing peers in Leeds include Harewood Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, Shadwell Primary School, and St Philip's Catholic Primary School, each achieving ranking scores in the high eighties. Asquith’s own ranking score of 56 reflects a more modest position, though it is worth noting that the school is not far from Morley Victoria Primary School, an Outstanding-rated school just 0. 6 km away. Asquith itself has held a Good rating from Ofsted across its two most recent inspections, with its latest ungraded inspection in June 2024 confirming the school remains Good, albeit with some concerns noted.
