Outcomes for Pupils 2018

Foundation Stage

Early Years – Good Level of Development (GLD)

Year 1 phonics

End of Key Stage 1

End of Key Stage 2

In 2018, any school will be above the floor if:

* at least 65% of pupils meet the expected standard in all three subjects (English reading, English writing and mathematics); (We are above the expected standard for 2018 with 73% attaining the expected standard in all three subjects compared to national 61%)

* the school achieves sufficient progress scores in all three subjects (We are above the floor standard here)

We achieved progress scores of 4 in Maths, 2.6 in Reading, and 1.5 in Writing, both Reading and Maths progress is significantly positive compared to similar schools, are in the main Writing is not significant.

Average scaled score in Reading was 106.6 above the NA 105 and in Maths the scaled scores was 106.9 above the NA 104.4  

We are well above the floor standard for 2018 due to progress and attainment.

Outcomes for Pupils 2017

Foundation Stage

Early Years – Good Level of Development (GLD)

Year 1 phonics

End of Key Stage 1

End of Key Stage 2

Average scaled scores for Reading were 105.1 compared to 104.1(National)

Average scaled scores for Maths were 103.8 compared to 104.2 (National)

Average scaled scores for Grammar were 104.1 compared to 106 (National)

Showing we are above the 100 mark and showing average progression in all subjects inline with 60% of schools nationally.

In 2017, any school will be above the floor if:

* at least 65% of pupils meet the expected standard in all three subjects (English reading, English writing and mathematics); (We are below the expected standard for 2017 with 58% attaining the expected standard in all three subjects compared to national 61%)

* the school achieves sufficient progress scores in all three subjects (We are above the floor standard here)

We achieved progress scores of -0.2 in Maths, 0 in Reading, and -1.2 in Writing which are in the main not significant, apart from Writing which shows a greater need to ensure further progress from KS1.

Therefore we are above the floor standard for 2017 due to progress.
