Sturton by Stow Primary School
Lincoln, LN1 2BY · Lincolnshire · primary school
174th 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 the 3,364 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.6/10 among them, against 2.2/10 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 | 56.0 · 30 | 40% | 1.19 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 56.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in February 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.6 out of 10 among them, against 2.2 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Year 5 and 6 pupils go on a residential trip in 2026 and do white water rafting. The school has neither a breakfast club nor an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 175 pupils in a building with 210 places, leaving 35 spare spots. 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 need extra help to reach the higher standard? What are the arrangements for supervision before and after lessons, given there are no clubs? How does the current class size affect individual attention during lessons?
