Primary schools in Lincoln, ranked

The 63 primary schools here are ranked by the share of pupils who reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths in 2024/25, from the Department for Education's published results.

Exam results are one part of the picture, and rankings never include Ofsted judgements: inspections from different eras cannot fairly be compared. Special schools and independent schools are not ranked, because their published figures do not compare fairly either. Each school's own page has its inspection history and context.

By 2024/25 exam results alone, The Hackthorn Church of England Primary School ranks first of 63 ranked primary schools in Lincoln, with 89% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. Results reflect each school's cohort as well as its teaching, so treat the ranking as a starting point rather than a verdict.
