About Beacon Primary Academy

Beacon Primary Academy holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent ungraded inspection in 2022, which confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results: 55% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits just below the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57%, placing the school 134th out of 280 primary schools in the county. Within the East Lindsey borough specifically, Beacon ranks 26th out of 47 schools on this measure. The school's Ofsted breakdown shows strong leadership and management also rated Good, while early years provision was judged Outstanding — a notable strength given the school's relatively small size of 206 pupils.
