The South Hykeham Community Primary School
Lincoln, LN6 9PG · Lincolnshire · primary school
64th 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 5.9/10 against 4,220 of them, against 5.9/10 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 | 60.0 · 39 | 40% | 1.56 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 20.0 · 92 | 25% | 2.30 |
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, 60.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 20.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2023. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.9 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 130 pupils in a school with 140 places, leaving 10 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the national median in core subjects? What specific activities take place during the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school plan to maintain its Good rating following the 2023 inspection?
