About Westwood Primary School

Westwood Primary School in Leeds is clearly a popular choice among local families, with 70 applications chasing just 23 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.04. All 23 first-preference applicants were offered a spot, which suggests that for those who put it top of their list, the school is a realistic option. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in December 2023, confirmed it remains Good, a rating it has held consistently since at least its previous graded inspection in 2014. While the Parent View data isn’t included here, the high demand alone signals strong local confidence. The school serves a diverse community, with 48.4 per cent of pupils eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, and it provides nursery provision for children from age three.
