About Ormiston South Parade Academy

Ormiston South Parade Academy’s Key Stage 2 results stand well above the North East Lincolnshire average for primary schools. In the 2023/24 academic year, 80% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 64%. That gap of 16 percentage points places the school 4th out of 42 primaries in the borough and in the top 25% nationally. The school also performs strongly at the higher standard, with 20% of pupils achieving that benchmark. In reading specifically, 59% reached the higher threshold, while average scaled scores of 110 in reading and 109 in maths both sit comfortably above the national average. These results are particularly striking given that 47.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, a figure well above the national average, suggesting the school is delivering strong academic progress for a cohort with above-average disadvantage.
