About Worlaby Academy

Worlaby Academy is a small state primary school in North Lincolnshire, educating just 52 pupils aged 4 to 11. It sits in a local authority where five out of 62 primary schools have achieved an Outstanding Ofsted rating, and Worlaby itself ranks 31st out of 51 schools in the area on the key stage 2 expected standard measure. The top-performing peers in the same LA include Winteringham Primary School, South Ferriby Primary School, and St Mary's Catholic Primary Voluntary Academy in Brigg, all of which score higher on the same metric. With a capacity of 91 and only 52 pupils on roll, the school is significantly under capacity, yet it was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake: 13 applications for 10 places, with all 10 first-preference applicants receiving offers. This suggests a strong local reputation despite its modest ranking position.
