Lincolnshire is one of the few counties within the UK that still uses the Eleven Plus to decide who may attend Grammar School . Despite the bias towards selection, there are many comprehensive schools in Lincolnshire with excellent records.

Notable schools in the county include the following:

  • Skegness Grammar School - notable as the first school in Great Britain to apply for and receive, 'grant-maintained' status.



  • Boston Grammar School is another ancient educational institution, having been founded by charter of William and Mary in 1555. It was used as the model for Boston Latin School which was the first school of the new colony in what became the United States Of America . Boston Grammar School's current library, built in 1567, is believed to be the oldest academic building in continuous use in England.


Despite the bias towards selection, there are many comprehensive schools in Lincolnshire with excellent records. The Priory (formerly the Lincoln School of Science and Technology) is well regarded and achieves results comparable with the selective schools. William Farr School at Welton recently topped the national list for 'A level' results and was described in a recent OFSTED report as "outstanding".
