About Yarborough Academy

Yarborough Academy, a state primary in North East Lincolnshire, was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a rating it has held consistently since at least its previous inspection in 2013. The school's most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. At 64%, this figure matches the local authority average exactly, placing Yarborough in the middle of the pack among its peers. It ranks 25th out of 42 primary schools in North East Lincolnshire on this measure, and 6,278th nationally out of 13,686. While the school is not among the top performers in the area — the nearest Outstanding-rated school, Elliston Primary Academy, is 4.6 km away — it delivers a solid, broadly average academic outcome for its pupils.
