Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
1.0/10 Well below average

53rd of 54 primary schools in North Lincolnshire we can score, 62 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 — 0.9/10 against 2,894 of them, against 1.3/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 47.0 · 15 40% 0.60
Ofsted 3 35% 0.10
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 0.0 · 10 25% 0.26

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
