Our Priorities
We are proud of the progress our pupils continue to make, particularly the strength of reading across Key Stage 2 and the significant improvement seen in phonics.
We continue to use assessment information carefully to identify areas for further development. Writing and Mathematics remain important areas of focus, alongside ensuring that all pupils build strong foundations from the beginning of their time at school.
These figures are provisional and will be updated when final performance information becomes available.
