National Curriculum Assessment Results

Pupils in years 2 and 6 take national tests (known as SATs). The results for 2008 were as follows:

Key Stage 1 (Year 2)

Reading 88% at level 2 and above (31% at level 3)

Writing 86% at level 2 and above (20% at level 3)

Maths 94% at level 2 and above (23% at level 3)

Key Stage 2 (Year 6)

 English 92% at level 4 and above (47% at level 5)

Maths 94% at level 4 and above (47% at level 5)

Science 92% at level 4 and above (67% at level 5)

We were especially pleased with the KS2 results, which were our highest ever. There were an extremely high number of children reaching level 5 (the expected level for an average 13 year old pupil). The excellent Science results reflect the efforts we have made to improve teaching and learning in the subject.
