Expected standard: a government set target (an expectation) for pupil performance
Greater depth: performing at an enhanced standard: scaled score of 110 or above
Phonics screening check (year 1)
At the end of Year 1, pupils are tested on their ability to match sounds with letters. This assessment is known as the Phonics Screening Test. ‘Sounding out words’ using phonological awareness and understanding of sound-letter correspondence is a key early reading skill. Using phonology is not the only way children learn to read – they employ a range of other strategies – but being good at phonics is seen as a most important starting point.
| Year | % of pupils passing the test | Number of pupils passing the test | Average mark out of 40 |
| 2024-25 | 98% | 59/60 | 38 |
| 2023-24 | 100% | 60/60 | 38 |
| 2022-23 | 100% | 60/60 | 37 |
| 2021-22 | 93% | 56/60 | 37 |
| 2020-21 | 98.0% | 59/60 | COVID-19 |
| 2019-20 | 98% | 59/60 | COVID-19 |
| 2018-19 | 98% | 59/60 | 39 |
| 2017-18 | 100% | 60/60 | 39 |

| 2011-12 | 93% | 56/60 | 36 |
| 3 year average | 99% | 37 |
Pupil outcomes in the phonics screening check continue to be highly impressive. In 2019 only one pupil (a pupil with an Education Health and Care plan) failed to meet the pass mark of 32 out of a possible 40 (and not by much!).
Commentary
Pupil performance has been consistently high since the phonics screening test was introduced. Impressive consistency continues! Teachers and support staff are doing an exceptional job. Phonics, the entry point for learning to read, is taught robustly, systematically and very proficiently.
Multiplication times table check
Our 2022 and 2023 results put the school in the top 200 schools nationally for two consecutive years. This is a great achievement and our 2024 results were even better.
