Check the area around this school
146th of 252 primary schools in Lincolnshire we can score, 279 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 3.9/10 against 3,014 of them, against 3.9/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 67.0 · 57 | 62% | 3.50 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 38% | 0.40 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Brant Broughton Church of England and Methodist Primary School
Overview
This is described as a "happy school" where pupils feel safe and staff relationships are strong, underpinned by virtues such as "kindness, courage, humility, hope". However, the report states that the school has been "slow to respond to some challenges" and that the curriculum in several subjects remains in development, leading to inconsistencies in teaching and learning.
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate "positive attitudes to their learning" and behaviour has "significantly improved" over recent times.
- The early years provision is "exciting and purposeful", with staff effectively engaging children in exploration.
- Support for pupils with SEND has improved, with staff identifying individual needs well and providing "appropriate and timely" support.
- Pastoral care is of "high quality", and pupils are taught how to keep themselves safe online and in the community.
- Attendance rates are "much improved" due to effective partnership with parents and carers.
Areas to improve
- The reading curriculum lacks a consistent approach to teaching pupils to "read for meaning", preventing full understanding of texts.
- Work to streamline the curriculum for some foundation subjects is incomplete, resulting in "too much content" for teachers to cover.
- Leaders and governors lack clear oversight, meaning the school does not accurately evaluate the impact of its work or identify gaps in pupils’ knowledge.
Safeguarding
The report states that "the arrangements for safeguarding are effective."
