About Beckfoot Allerton Primary School and Nursery

Beckfoot Allerton Primary School and Nursery was not given an overall effectiveness grade in its most recent Ofsted inspection, but the individual judgements tell a strong story. Behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision were all rated Outstanding, while quality of education and leadership and management were judged Good. That is a clear improvement from the previous inspection in 2022, when the school was rated Requires Improvement across the board. The most informative academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined expected standard in reading, writing and maths, which stands at 64% of pupils. That is above the Bradford local authority average of 59%, placing the school 59th out of 153 primary schools in the area, comfortably in the top 40% nationally.
