Our school is proud to continue achieving results that are above national averages across key areas of learning. In Early Years, 75% of children reached a Good Level of Development, compared with 71% nationally.
At Key Stage 2, our outcomes are particularly strong. 81% of pupils met the expected standard in Reading and Writing, and 84% in Maths—all significantly higher than national figures. Our combined Reading, Writing and Maths result stands at 71%, well above the national average of 62%.
These achievements reflect the dedication of our staff, the strength of our curriculum, and our commitment to ensuring every child is supported to thrive. While we are delighted with these results, we are never complacent. We remain ambitious for all pupils, including the most able, and are focused on increasing the number who reach the higher standard.
