New Waltham Academy
About New Waltham Academy
New Waltham Academy stands out clearly against the North East Lincolnshire average for primary schools. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, 76% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 64%. That twelve-point gap puts the school in the top quarter of primaries nationally and ninth out of 42 schools in the borough. The school also outperforms the LA average on individual subjects: 84% hit the expected standard in maths, 78% in reading and 88% in writing. At the higher standard, 18% of pupils achieved across all three subjects, with maths and reading both seeing 32% of children working at that level. The average scaled scores of 107 in maths and 106 in reading are solidly above the national benchmark of 100. This is a school that consistently delivers above the local norm, and its ranking in the top 25% of all primary schools in Yorkshire and the Humber confirms that pattern.
