About Co-op Academy Brownhill

Co-op Academy Brownhill sits in the bottom half of Leeds primary schools when it comes to the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. Its 50% achieving that benchmark in 2023/24 falls short of the Leeds local authority average of 61%, a gap that families weighing up their options will want to consider. The school is heavily oversubscribed — 110 applications for 36 places in 2025/26, with a ratio of just over three applicants per spot — so demand clearly runs high despite the headline figures. That tension between popularity and below-average outcomes suggests parents are drawn to something beyond raw test scores, perhaps the school’s broad offer or its reputation for inclusion. With 55.9% of pupils eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, the school serves a significantly disadvantaged intake, which contextualises those attainment figures.
