About Scawby Academy

Scawby Academy’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit below the North Lincolnshire average, a gap that parents will want to weigh carefully. The school’s proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined stands at 56%, compared with the local authority average of 62%. That six-point deficit places Scawby 38th out of 62 primary schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half of its local peers. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: reading (81% expected) and maths (75% expected) are both solid, but writing lags at 63% expected, dragging down the combined figure. At the higher standard, 19% of pupils achieved the top benchmark across all three subjects, which is a reasonable showing. The school’s ranking nationally sits around the 67th percentile, meaning it performs better than roughly two-thirds of primaries across England, even if it trails the local average.
