About South Ferriby Primary School

South Ferriby Primary School is a primary school in Barton-upon-Humber, North Lincolnshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 81 pupils aged 5 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 83% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That is down 6.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 21% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 8% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). South Ferriby Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 7 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 3.9%. There are about 25.3 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 8% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. South Ferriby Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
