Kader Academy

School overview

Kader Academy is a primary school serving Middlesbrough, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 450 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. 72% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 6.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 11% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 109 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 21% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Kader Academy their first choice was offered one of its 58 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 5.3%. There are about 21.4 pupils per teacher. Kader Academy does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
