About Co-op Academy Broadhurst

Co-op Academy Broadhurst was rated Good by Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2017, and a subsequent ungraded visit in 2023 confirmed the school remains Good. The inspection team singled out early years provision as Outstanding, while leadership and management were judged Good. On the headline academic metric for primary schools, 52% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2 in 2023/24. That figure sits below the Manchester local authority average of 57%, and places the school 78th out of 122 primary schools in the borough. Nationally, Broadhurst ranks in the bottom half of all primaries on this measure. However, the school’s raw scores tell a more nuanced story: the average reading score was 104 and maths 103, both just above the national benchmark of 100, suggesting many children are making solid progress even if the combined threshold remains a stretch.
