About Oakworth Primary School

Oakworth Primary School is a state primary for children aged 3 to 11, and it is very nearly full. With 413 pupils on roll against a capacity of 420, the school is operating at 98% of its maximum. The demand for places is clear: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 118 applications for just 50 places, and all 50 first-preference offers were taken up. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 2.36, meaning more than two families applied for every available spot. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is 9.6%, which is notably lower than the national average for primary schools, suggesting a relatively less deprived intake than many schools in the Bradford area. The school has no religious character and is led by headteacher Ed Whitehead. It also offers nursery provision, so families with three-year-olds can secure a place early.
