Lingdale Primary School at a glance

Located in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Redcar and Cleveland, Lingdale Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as an academy converter. The school educates roughly 95 pupils aged 2 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Requires improvement' at its most recent inspection. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 71% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. That is down 14.0 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 22% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 105 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 82% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above.
