Our Standards - How well do children attain?

When reading the data below, you will notice that there is no data for 2020 and 2021. This is because there were no national assessments in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid pandemic. National assessments resumed in 2022.

What is worth bearing in mind is that the children who sat the end of KS2 SATs had 1 full school year in KS2 that was not disrupted.

The green boxes highlight where the school's data is in-line with or better than national outcomes.

The school's data can be compared to other schools by visiting the DfE website here: Search for schools, colleges and multi-academy trusts - Compare school and college performance data in England - GOV.UK (compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk)
