The Globe Primary Academy at a glance

Located in Lancing, West Sussex, The Globe Primary Academy is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy. The school educates roughly 417 pupils aged 4 to 11. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 36% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. That is down 1.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 101 in reading and 101 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 5% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The Globe Primary Academy was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 44 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 6.4%. There are about 21.0 pupils per teacher. The Globe Primary Academy 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. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
