Most importantly, the pupils made good progress from their starting point in our school, despite the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

We have in the past worked very closely with the Department of Education and OFSTED to raise awareness of the difficulties Junior schools have in demonstrating good progress across Key Stage 2 and would like to draw your attention to the following message that is now included for parents:

 

Junior schools

We know from national data that pupils at junior schools, on average, have higher attainment scores at the end of key stage 2 than pupils at all other primary schools. However, on average, they also have lower progress scores. This may be for a variety of reasons and should be taken into account when comparing their results to schools which start educating their pupils from the beginning of key stage 1.
