About Worth Valley Primary School

Worth Valley Primary School sits within the Bradford local authority, a large and varied area for primary education. Among the 157 state primary schools in the borough, Worth Valley ranks 68th, placing it just inside the top half. The top-performing peers in the LA are All Saints' CofE Primary School, Harden Primary School, and Copthorne Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. Worth Valley itself falls into the bottom 50 tier nationally, but its local position tells a more nuanced story. The school has a capacity of 286 and currently educates 235 pupils, with a notably high proportion of children eligible for free school meals at 50.9%. It is also heavily oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, 51 families applied for 21 places, and all 20 first-preference applicants were offered a spot, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.43. That level of demand suggests strong local confidence, even if the school isn't among the highest-ranked primaries in the area.
