About St Andrew's CofE Primary School

St Andrew's CofE Primary School in East Lindsey holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent inspection in October 2023, and the detail behind that grade tells a strong academic story. The school was rated Outstanding for behaviour and attitudes, with Good marks across the other four categories: quality of education, early years provision, personal development, and leadership and management. That inspection marked a clear step forward from the school's previous graded inspection in 2014, which also rated overall effectiveness as Good but did not assess behaviour and attitudes separately. On the most informative exam metric available, the school's Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year show that 78% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits well above the local authority average of 57% for similar schools, placing St Andrew's 5th out of 47 primary schools in East Lindsey and inside the top 25% nationally.
