Academy Information

Hogsthorpe Primary Academy was built in 1857 to serve the local community of Hogsthorpe.

We are a small rural primary school on the edge of Hogsthorpe village, around 7 miles outside of Skegness. Everything we do is based on educating our children’s hearts and minds.

Hogsthorpe Primary Academy provides a continuous learning journey from children from four to eleven years old. As a result of our high expectations and strong curriculum, our children make at least good progress from their starting points and achieve well. Our key stage 2 results are well above national standards.

We deliver a knowledge rich curriculum, which is underpinned by important skills learnt in English and maths. We make learning interesting and fun, and our children enjoy school.
