School Performance
Standards of Attainment
Statutory Assessments take place in Year 1 and Year 6. There are also national assessments standards for Reception’s Good Level of Development (GLD) and Year 1 Phonics Screening.
There are no national standards for assessment comparison at the end of Years 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 for reading, writing, maths or spelling punctuation and grammar (SPAG).

Year 6 SATs
A scaled score between 100 and 120 shows that a Year 6 pupil has met the expected standard in the SATs tests, taken in May each year. The lowest scaled score that can be awarded on a Key Stage 2 test is 80; the highest is 120. A child who achieves a scaled score of 100 or more is deemed to be working at Greater Depth.
