Hogsthorpe Primary Academy
Skegness, PE24 5PT · Lincolnshire · primary school
14th of 253 primary schools in Lincolnshire we can score, 280 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.7/10 against 1,522 of them, against 8.9/10 nationally. 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 | 86.0 · 95 | 40% | 3.79 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 14.0 · 81 | 25% | 2.03 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 86.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 14.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in football, the DRET Summer Cup, sports competitions, dance, A Big Sing, the Shakespeare Schools Festival, and Hansel and Gretel. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 56 pupils in a capacity of 70 places, leaving 14 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific support is available for the 14.0% who did not reach the higher standard? How does the small class size affect individual attention during lessons?
