About Castledyke Primary School

Castledyke Primary School in North Lincolnshire was rated Requires Improvement overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a downgrade from the Good rating it held in 2019. The inspection report shows that while early years provision and personal development were judged Good, the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management all require improvement. On the key academic measure for primary schools, the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined stood at 57% in the 2023/24 academic year. That is below the North Lincolnshire local authority average of 62%, and places Castledyke 36th out of 51 primary schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half locally. Nationally, the school ranks in the 65th percentile among all primary schools.
