About Iqra Primary Academy

Iqra Primary Academy’s headline metrics sit noticeably below the Bradford local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 59 per cent, Iqra’s figure is 52 per cent. That gap of seven percentage points places the school 110th out of 153 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the bottom half of Bradford’s state primaries. Nationally, it ranks in the 75th percentile, meaning roughly a quarter of schools across England perform lower on this measure. The picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects: 73 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in maths, and 78 per cent did so in writing, both respectable figures. Reading is the weaker area, with only 58 per cent reaching the expected level. At the higher standard, just 8 per cent of pupils achieved the top grade across all three subjects, well below the kind of figures you’d see at the strongest local primaries like All Saints’ CofE or Harden.
