About Gipsey Bridge Academy

Gipsey Bridge Academy’s Key Stage 2 results sit well below the Lincolnshire local authority average, which is a significant point for parents to weigh up. In the 2023/24 academic year, only 24% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a county average of 57%. That gap of 33 percentage points places the school in the bottom 50 nationally for this metric, ranking 43rd out of 47 primary schools in East Lindsey. The average scaled scores tell a similar story: 99 in maths and 98 in reading, both just below the national benchmark of 100. The proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard in any subject is very low — 6% in maths and reading, and 0% in writing. These figures suggest that, while the school may serve its community well in other ways, academic attainment at the end of primary is an area of concern when set against local peers.
