About Micklefield Church of England Primary Academy

Micklefield Church of England Primary Academy is a small state primary in the Leeds local authority, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025 saw it achieve a Good rating across all five graded areas — a significant turnaround from its previous inspection in 2019, when it was rated Inadequate overall. In the context of Leeds’ 221 primary schools, Micklefield ranks 189th, placing it in the bottom half locally. For comparison, the top-performing peers in the same authority include Harewood Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, Shadwell Primary School, and St Philip’s Catholic Primary School, all of which score considerably higher on the same ranking metric. The school is oversubscribed for 2025/26, with 14 applications for 8 places and all 8 first-preference applicants receiving offers, suggesting strong local demand despite its modest ranking. With 93 pupils on roll against a capacity of 130, the school has room to grow, and its Church of England character, led by headteacher Emma Cook, gives it a distinct identity within the local primary landscape.
