Burley Oaks Primary School
About Burley Oaks Primary School
Burley Oaks Primary School was judged Outstanding in every category of its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a rating it has now held across two consecutive inspections dating back to 2007. That headline, however, sits alongside a more nuanced picture in the classroom. At Key Stage 2, 62% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the Bradford local authority average of 59%, but still placing the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally, at the 53rd percentile. The school’s strongest individual subject was reading, where pupils achieved an average scaled score of 107 and 80% reached the expected standard, with 30% working at a higher level. Maths was slightly weaker: a 104 average score and 74% at the expected level, though 23% hit the higher threshold. Writing saw 70% at expected and 20% at greater depth. Just 8% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects.
