About Heybrook Primary School

Heybrook Primary School sits within the Rochdale local authority, a large primary with 703 pupils that ranks 24th out of 52 similar schools in the borough. That places it just inside the bottom half of its local peers, with a ranking score of 63 based on the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. For context, the top three schools in the area — All Souls Church of England Primary, Hollin Primary and Healey Foundation Primary — all score 80 or above. Heybrook is a mixed, non-religious state primary for children aged 2 to 11, with a nursery on site. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in October 2023, confirmed the school remains Good, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school serves a community with high levels of disadvantage: 46.5 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average.
