About Theddlethorpe Academy

Theddlethorpe Academy has been rated Good across the board in its most recent Ofsted inspection from July 2023, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2019. The school now holds Good grades for overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. However, the academic outcomes story is more mixed. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, just 15% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 57%. This places the school 238th out of 280 primary schools in Lincolnshire, and in the bottom 50 nationally by this metric. The school's ranking score of 15 puts it well behind top local peers like Quadring Cowley & Brown's Primary School, which scored 100.
