Tetney Primary School
About Tetney Primary School
Tetney Primary School has been rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2018. The school’s leadership and management, as well as its early years provision, were both judged Good. The most telling academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard: 60% of pupils reached this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits slightly above the Lincolnshire local authority average of 57%, placing Tetney 104th out of 280 primary schools in the county. In the East Lindsey district specifically, the school ranks 17th out of 47 primaries, putting it in the top half locally. While no pupils achieved the higher standard in all three subjects, individual subject results show 75% met the expected standard in reading, 65% in maths, and 80% in writing, with 20% reaching the higher standard in maths.
