About St. Clare's Catholic Primary School, A Voluntary Academy

St. Clare’s Catholic Primary School in Bradford was rated Good by Ofsted in its most recent inspection in 2024, a clear step up from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2020. The school improved across every category, with leadership, behaviour, personal development, and the quality of education all now judged Good. That upward trajectory is reflected in the school’s Key Stage 2 results for 2023/24: 59% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which matches the local authority average for Bradford exactly. However, the proportion reaching the higher standard in all three subjects was just 7%, below the national picture. In maths, 72% of pupils hit the expected level and 34% reached the higher standard, while in reading the figures were 66% and 28% respectively. The school’s average scaled scores — 103 in maths and 104 in reading — are both slightly above the national benchmark of 100, suggesting solid core teaching even if the combined headline figure is modest.
