North Somercotes CofE Primary School
About North Somercotes CofE Primary School
North Somercotes CofE Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in January 2024, a rating it has maintained consistently across both its recent inspections. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard attainment: 50% of pupils reached this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. This places the school below the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57% for the same measure. In the context of East Lindsey, the school ranks 33rd out of 47 primary schools on this metric, putting it in the bottom half of the local authority. Nationally, it sits at the 78th percentile, meaning roughly 22% of primary schools across England performed lower on this combined measure. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available, so it is difficult to assess how much value it adds relative to pupils’ starting points, but the raw attainment figures give a clear picture of where outcomes currently stand.
