About Our Lady of Lincoln Catholic Primary School A Voluntary Academy

Our Lady of Lincoln Catholic Primary School A Voluntary Academy was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, which sits at 43% of pupils. That figure is notably below the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57%, placing the school 196th out of 280 primary schools in the county. In the Lincoln local area specifically, it ranks 13th out of 16 schools on this measure, putting it in the bottom half of its immediate peers. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available, but its average scaled scores in reading (104) and maths (102) are both above the national baseline of 100, suggesting that while fewer children reach the expected standard overall, those who do are performing solidly.
