Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

Every child who put Westbourne Primary School first was offered a place in 2026, so no distance cut-off applied: living further away did not cost a place that year.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

School overview

Westbourne Primary School is a primary school serving Bradford, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 406 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 55% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — below the national average of 61%. That is down 5.0 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 lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 103 in reading and 102 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 4% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Westbourne Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 33 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 7.3%. There are about 20.0 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 40% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Westbourne Primary School 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. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
