Attainment

2020

Due to the impact of COVID-19, the children did not sit the KS2 statutory assessments and there are no official results.  The predicted proportions of children meeting the expected standards were as follows:

  • Reading                                                                                        100%
  • Writing                                                                                            93%
  • Mathematics                                                                               100%

The proportions of children expected to meet the higher standards in all of reading, writing and mathematics was 28%.

There are no national results available for comparison.  Further information about attainment data can be found at the government website.

One child also obtained a GCSE A* for mathematics.

The cohort was 8 children, so each child counted for 13%.

 

The results for children making at least two levels of progress since Year 2 were:

Reading 100%
Writing 86%
