About Leys Farm Junior School

Leys Farm Junior School’s headline KS2 results sit noticeably below the North Lincolnshire average for primary schools. While the local authority average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 62%, Leys Farm’s figure is 49%. That gap of 13 percentage points places the school 43rd out of 51 similar schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half of the local league table. The school’s reading and maths average scores of 103 and 101 respectively are also modest, though reading is closer to the national benchmark. On the plus side, the proportion of pupils achieving the expected standard in writing alone is a healthier 78%, and 70% hit the target in reading. The school is significantly smaller than its capacity, with 127 pupils against a maximum of 180, and has a high proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals at 40.9%, which may partly explain the lower headline figures.
