About New York Primary School

New York Primary School, a small state primary in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, received a Requires Improvement rating in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a downgrade from the Good rating it held in its previous inspection a decade earlier. The inspection report paints a mixed picture: personal development and behaviour and attitudes were both rated Good, but quality of education, early years provision, and leadership and management all require improvement. With just 43 pupils on roll against a capacity of 70, the school is significantly undersubscribed, though it was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 11 applications for 6 places. The most telling academic metric is the local authority’s average Key Stage 2 score of 57, against which New York Primary’s own results — not provided in the data — would need to be compared to gauge pupil progress.
