About Partney Church of England Aided Primary School

Partney Church of England Aided Primary School received a Requires Improvement rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in May 2025, a downgrade from the Good rating it held in its previous inspection in 2019. The inspection judged the quality of education and leadership and management as requiring improvement, while early years provision, personal development, and behaviour and attitudes were all rated Good. The school was not given an overall effectiveness grade in the latest report. On the most informative exam metric available, the school’s Key Stage 2 results sit below the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57 percent, though the exact school figure is not published in the data. This places Partney among schools in the area where academic outcomes are a clear area for development, and the Ofsted report will be a key consideration for parents weighing up options.
