About Skegness Junior Academy

Skegness Junior Academy was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2025, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school's most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stood at 55% in the 2023/24 academic year. This is very close to the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57%, placing the school broadly in line with its peers. Broken down by subject, 70% of pupils met the expected standard in maths, 69% in writing and 65% in reading. The school's average scaled scores were 104 in maths and 103 in reading, both slightly above the national benchmark of 100. However, the proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard across all three subjects was just 7%, and the school ranked 27th out of 47 primary schools in the East Lindsey area, placing it in the bottom half of the local authority.
