About Oldfield Primary School

Oldfield Primary School is a small state primary in the Bradford local authority, educating 62 pupils aged 5 to 11. In the most recent local rankings, it placed 132nd out of 157 primary schools in the area, placing it in the bottom half of Bradford’s schools. The top-performing local peers include All Saints' CofE Primary School, Harden Primary School, and Copthorne Primary School, all of which achieved significantly higher ranking scores.
