St Chad's Church of England Primary School
About St Chad's Church of England Primary School
St Chad's Church of England Primary School sits comfortably above the Leeds local authority average for its key stage 2 results, with 70% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with 61% across the LA. That nine-point gap places the school in the top third of primary schools in Leeds, ranked 68th out of 204. It also performs well on the higher standard: 13% of pupils achieved that top tier in all three subjects, while in reading alone 60% reached the higher threshold and 53% did so in maths. The average scaled scores of 109 in reading and 107 in maths reinforce a picture of solid, above-average attainment. The school has held a Good rating from Ofsted across both its most recent inspections, with the latest graded inspection in July 2024 confirming Good in every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That consistency over more than a decade suggests stable leadership under headteacher Gina Marsland.
