About Co-op Academy Parkland

Co-op Academy Parkland has turned a corner. In its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, inspectors judged the school Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That’s a clear step up from its previous graded inspection in 2023, when the school was rated Requires Improvement overall, with the same grade for quality of education, early years, behaviour, and leadership. The most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths combined: 52 per cent. That’s below the Bradford local authority average of 59 per cent, and it places the school 109th out of 153 primary schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half of the local league table. Nationally, it sits in the 75th percentile, meaning roughly a quarter of primary schools score lower. So while the Ofsted story is one of genuine improvement, the academic outcomes still have ground to make up against local peers.
