The Lincoln St Peter at Gowts Church of England Primary School
LINCOLN, LN5 7TA · Lincolnshire · primary school
34th 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 — 6.0/10 against 1,932 of them, against 4.9/10 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 | 65.0 · 52 | 40% | 2.07 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 6.0 · 45 | 25% | 1.12 |
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, 65.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 6.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in March 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Dance, Multi-skills, Crafts, and Gardening clubs, with trips to London, outdoor camping, and Rand Farm Park. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 255 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 45. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine for 45 pupils over the stated capacity? What specific support is available for children who need help settling in, given the high demand for places? How does the after-school club operate for families who cannot access a morning provision?
