About St Anne's Catholic Primary School

St Anne's Catholic Primary School is a primary school in Keighley, Bradford, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Roman Catholic religious character. Around 242 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 70% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. That is down 3.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 32% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 10% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 77% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (35 first choices for 27 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 0.58 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 6.5%. There are about 20.9 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
