About Morley Victoria Primary School

Morley Victoria Primary School is a primary school in Leeds, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 462 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds an 'Outstanding' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 78% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 9.0 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 among the top 14% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 107 in reading and 109 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 15% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 81% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (68 first choices for 60 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 0.85 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. There are about 22.3 pupils per teacher. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child. 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.
